Veteran Teams have No Advantage

[Ian Curtis]

At BAE, 58 scored the most game pieces (20) on Friday. 1276 scored the next most (18). Then came 1307 (16) and 1073 (13). Then there was 175 (12).

All of these teams are at least at the end of a high school cycle. 58 was a rookie just before '98. 1276 and 1307 were rookies in 2004. 1073 has at least five years experience (maybe 6), Buzz was a rookie in '96.

I don't see a whole lot of correlation here, other than all of these teams have at least 4 years under their belt. BAE is pretty heavy with old teams, so this data may be weighted. I would say veteran teams should have an advantage, put after your third year, you've had the opportunity to learn as much as you need to be competative (with experienced mentors, this knowledge should come even quicker).
