Barc09: I absolutely believe that you believe what you profess.

Two issues on the "logic" behind your post. First: if Riverside beats Eastside, then that would mean that your favorite player isn't the best player in 3-A. Now...of course that can't be...so it might be that the best player on the best team in the state isn't automatically the best player. Secondly: your player needs to play up not just one year but several years on up to U18G and/or college since the players that she's "better" than are premier players several years beyond her age bracket as well.

Again...as I noted earlier...Catie is a fine player.
