:Thumbs: Good post and very, very true.I was not at the state 7th grade finals but some of our plyer and coaches were. There was one kids on the N. Laurel 7th grade team with a beard. It is hard to play straight up when lalot of others are not. Just keep your eyes on the bigger prize down the road in high school. the age difference 17/18 and 19 is not nearly as big as 12 to 14.

Your post about teams not playing straight up is crap. If you have a 12 year old playing in 7th grade against 14 year olds that is on you as a parent. BTW I dont remember any of the players on North Laurel having a beard.
