Dog....that is exactly why I said I was not sure that it was an indication of his abilities. However, I think were getting a little ahead of ourselves to say Fernando is the best player in the state as this thread addresses. BTW he wasn't the only 8th grader playing on the '92 team. I know of at least 4 others. I didn't see him play the first two games but was he so far above the other players on that team to be consider the best in the state?
