The kids who leave for Shattuck are often entertaining the 50 or so other Prep schools (mostly in New England) and Junior hockey options.itsmorefun wrote:Kids who leave to play for Shattuck (and their parents) don't get the same grief as kids who leave to play Tier One youth. Just makes a person wonder...
Also, have you spoken to people from Latvia, California, Texas, North Carolina, Belarus, Alaska, Norway, Nebraska, Washington, North Dakota, Massachusetts, and Wisconsin - and that's just this year's team - to see how they felt about losing a kid like Greiner, Sinz, Weberg, or Blueger?
Seriously, are you comparing the Edina kids that are 99s playing for the Fire with the Shattuck experience? Most often the Shattuck kids don't have a comparable option in their area and they make a decision to attend Prep school in Faribault.
