Although a 5.0 in high school is possible, you don't see it very often.
Oh well. Keep postin'

Varsity in Junior High seems very possible, but it'd be a lot more believable if there were more Junior High Varsity Teams.

I don't know about other areas, but there are a plenty 5.0s here in Los Angeles. Some teams to have them are: Carson, Palos Verdes, Granada Hills, Eagle Rock, Marshall (I think), and there's one in another team, but he didn't join the team since he was bored.

your forgetting palisades. plenty of uber players there. and marshall is also pretty good prob, considering some of their players did well in the watts summer games.

To the middleschool-ers/junior-high-er, don't boast about being Varsity or Junior Varsity if that's not how it really is, you are only confusing us. We won't look down upon you for telling the truth, but trying to sound "cool" or whatever......just isn't working.

I hope your not directing this to me. Just because your school doesnt have a varsity and jr varsity doesnt mean anything. Maybe you come from a small school or maybe it doesnt have a budget for 4 full tennis jr high teams. Even in Texas I would think for sure that your jr high schools have both varsity and jr varsity FOOTBALL. Ours do.

Now if you must know more you might find this interesting that for the larger tournaments we have several high school jv players (9th grade) take our 2-6 spots while our jh high varsity plays the JV matches. The high schoolers (9th grade) also play some of the jr high varsity doubles matches. We have a very large schedule and are only eligible for 8 individual tournaments (does not include dual meets). I sit out against the weaker schools to maintain my eligibility for the larger school (6A) matches.

We have big schools graduating senior classes are 300+.

BTW while you were picking up trash I kicking the crap out of my jh tennis coach on the courts during PRACTICE.

Are you still confused?

Yes. I'm still confused, and in Texas classes of 300 is considered 4A, we have classes of 500+, my class(2010) has 900 kids in it.

I'll put my question in simpler terms.

In Junior High, are you playing Varsity High School matches? Or is the Junior High team split into Varsity/Junior Varsity?

grad class of 900 wow!!! We are a 6A school. Jr high team is split varsity and jv
