The Salt River Conference doesn't do 7th grade and 8th grade teams. They do an A Team (composed of the players at all levels that can compete at that level) and everyone else is on the B Team to develop them on a different level.

What is amazing is that the Salt River Conference titles that have been won (banners in the school) fall in line with state titles almost exactly.

As they should because your using essentially the same groups as upper classmen in high school as you did in middle example combined 7th and 8th would be your junior senior class. That’s what makes middles school so awesome to watch is that teams with that one powerhouse class example 8th only can beat some of these schools or at least compete with what will be another schools junior senior class. Like in our situation in the past most groups that won in 7th also won next year in 8th. That’s why the middle school programs that excel there high schools in 7 out of 10 times are good. Now that theory doesn’t apply to school that have more than one school feeding one high school.[/QUOTE]

With all due respect, I think you're taking this middle school state title thing way too serious. Although winning this tourney would be a great accomplishment, the only thing that really matters is high school state championships.
