Interesting that the MSABC nomination process for "Maryland" players does not consider kids that play ball in the Maryland, DC and Virginia vicinity.
What that means is that several kids that are ranked by Perfect Game -- No. 1 and No. 2 in the State of Maryland and live in the State of Maryland are not included in this nomination process because they play high school in DC. Both players are ranked in the top 20 by Baseball America (no other kids from Maryland noted) in the US for the State of Maryland. These are Maryland kids......
Oh by the way, both kids are All-Americans (Rawlings/Alfac) -- but not allowed to represent the State of Maryland --- interesting way to narrow the field by the MSABC/Maryland HS Baseball Coaches. Too bad it does not recognize the best baseball players that reside in the State of Maryland......

Trep, No doubt both that you mention are great ball players. I would think though the MARYLAND State Assoc. Baseball Coaches, would imply the kid play in Maryland. I really don't think it is a slight to anyone just simply it is a Maryland organization.
