The 14U national tournament with the best sample of top teams, players, and competition is ASA. It's not even close. Other sanctions put on nice national tournaments, but they're not the same. That's why there were so many D-1 coaches at the 14U tournament in Moline this year (among others, UCLA (Lisa Fernandez), Arizona, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Washington, Florida, Georgia, Texas, Texas Tech, Northwestern, Kentucky, Nebraska, UVA, LSU, and Mississippi State). It was an incredible experience for a young softball player - win or lose.
