One obstacle overcome...how to maintain class years. I set league age minimum to 18 and max to 21. So, at 21, these players are 'seniors' and gone at 22.

Big question -- how to weight the schedule so that the majority of games are within division. I tried both balanced and unbalanced and wound up with games across different divisions (not within leagues though -- I divided the country up into East and West) within the league. Thoughts????

Also, how to create a second record for the team within the season (division record towards conference championship). So a team could be 30-20 overall but 16-4 in conference. 16-4 wins the conference rightfully whereas 30-20 overall might only get you 3rd place. Need some help with this...

Last issue...how to space out the schedule so that you're not playing everyday but rather 3-4 games per week. As it is, you'd need a 5 man rotation to compete, but college teams only need 3-4 good starters and they're fine.

Any comments on the above 3 issues would be GREATLY appreciated!!!! Thank you in advance.

Lastly, postseason can't be double elimination like regionals/supers/CWS...but each round of say a 64 team tourney can be best of 3...so that's still 2 losses and you're out. Works OK.

Thank you!!
