Is there an advantage to attending the PG event in your area as opposed to attending an event out of state? In other words, do local colleges scout at PG events.

Thank you in advance for any feedback.

I think PG could better answer your question.

From our experience: son wanted to see what else was out there, besides Big 12 (we are in Texas). He went to one @ Baylor, then opted to go to Fla. He was also on a team that participated in WWBA 17U & 18U, in Fla. That opened up PG Nationals & tournys in Marietta the following summer.
Depends on what schools, what part of the country, etc., your son is interested in.
