Have to think Tribe is going to get one of the at large bids for Open. But maybe they don't want to go to Vegas. Really no need to, just about every player on that team has committed.

Most 17’s who are going to Vegas in open are committed,they want to still compete for a championship if possible.

Agree, if you’re playing 17 open most if not all of the girls on those teams are committed. You got a better chance of winning AAU’s which I think ends 2 days before USAV, so maybe some teams that need an at large just play AAU. Again it’s not the strongest comp but parents save money etc. If your pushing for at large your a longshot at usav.

How do parents save money going to AAU over Jr Nat??
wouldnt that entirely depend on where they are coming from ??

It’s a long break and who was playing well in April may not be the case in July.

Yeah we can all see that in 14,15’s girls/teams are still figuring it out, but at 17’s it’s highly unlikely. Would be fun to watch though!!

A team that made the gold bracket at all the qualifiers they attended who caught some bad breaks,for instance losing 13-15 in the 3rd set in both matches to win their pool. That team is an open level team.

I have a lot of at large questions if a team finished in gold every qualifier they were in but didn’t get an at large bid? Or was in gold every tournament?

Being in Gold gets you in the conversation....how did you do vs. the qualified field, and how did you do vs. the other at-large candidates tend to determine who gets the bids. Where those matches happened doesn't matter....

Strength of qualifiers attended tends to weigh heavy as well.
