Originally posted by Unregistered View PostOften times they initially focus primarily on one sport, while peripherally playing another, then switch later on. It happens quite often. Their ability to excel in the later sport partly depends on the sport, but more so on their drive to improve and work hard at it. Intense athletes tend to be that way no matter what they play

I agree it's the same pool of kids. By junior year h.s., the athletic group is all sorted.

My kid is mid pack so it could go any way, but curious for the hell of it to see who is strongest in 2,4,5 years... How much will it change?
