"The event also creates an excellent opportunity for the nation's top colleges to preview the future of their respective programs."

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the 94's and 95's basically 7th, 8th & 9th graders?

You are correct. Erik is an 8th grader.

I don't know the details, but I was told Erik was wearing a CESA uniform this weekend and not a Bridge, FA one.

If that is case it appears the CESA 94 Premier team is even that much stronger now! A very good team!

That's correct. He just left the Bridge team and has joined CESA.

uh oh. there goes his development. why would he leave the bridge?

Could not find a better trainer in his own backyard than Kian Brownlee at MPSC U14. I hate to quote the Fresh Prince but "Parents Just Don't Understand"
Good Luck EC

You obviously missed the memo. It's all a conspiracy theory where everything leads back to MPSC ;-).
