The stars of a JV team can be a proud image for the school. Also, it the anticipation of them playing varsity can bring more fans and maybe even students to the school. As time goes by maybe schools can shed some more light on their JV teams and even players. It may not be popular now but who knows that can change in a few years?
What do you think? Should schools give JV teams more attention?
