His involvement in the Olym- tlv
pic program gives USC head soc- yo
cer coach Mark Bcrson a decided yo
edge in the quest for future college
players, but it's an advantage th
he carefully qualifies. th
"Recruiting is not allowed at y<
these Olympic Development N
camps, but you gel to identify
and recognize where these players p
arc. So it's a very important o
recruiting tool. s?
"We don't rely as much on the tl
high schools as we do on the club a
teams in the Classic Leagues, C
which are kind of like American p
Legion baseball," Berson said. n
"The coaches for the Classic
League teams go out and recruit E
the best players in the area, from S
all (he high schools, to play for 1
their club team. 5
"Then you end up going back r
to the high schools later when C
you want to take that final look c
at a player, and, of course, to
check out the academics. ii
