What type of ODP experience is represented in these rosters? I am just curious as to what effect the academy program will have on the ODP numbers for those age groups.



Having been involved with the boys 91 ODP for a while, here's what I know.

Of the current state team (of course all will have to tryout again) that earned the ability to play in the ODP National Championship in January, there are 2 team members and I think 2 alternates in the U16 list. I believe that there are other players listed that may be 92 or younger players.

Additionally, within that roster group there are 5 others that over the course of the last few years have been on the 91 ODP state team, but were not this past year.

As for the U18 group, there are a couple of players that I recognize as being on the older state teams and others that have been on that team, but I don't know that age group that well.

This year there doesn't appear to be an overly large impact to the numbers between this academy group and the ODP group.
