I know many college kids don't play ball at all during the summer once they are in college. I don't understand that. If you want to be the best, you need to be playing the top competition.

... Maybe...
My DD played 18U after her first year in college. It was fun, but it was too much for her. Her arm was shot after the summer, and then fall ball started as soon as she got back to school. She was pretty much exhausted.
After her sophomore year, she played a little 23U during the summer. It wasn't much fun...there were no practices, so everyone just showed up to play. My DD was used to playing a very sophisticated version of the game, and the 23U team was just not much fun.
And, everyone needs some time off. There is more to life than softball.
One young lady who just finished her college career shouted out after being tagged out in a steal attempt, "I'm so old." That got all of us parents laughing.
