I Think 95% of stats at the high school level need to be taken with a grain of salt.

I think at the extremes, they can be useful.

For example: whether Mayden & Shrader had a 50% or 70% completion % is completely useless & means nothing. It's about physical talent.

However, if Mayden or Shrader had a 30% completion % or an 80+& completion would be useful.

If a first round baseball player hits .220 his SR year of HS, it's a concern. If he hits .750 it can also be useful, but, if hitting .275 - .600 is pretty useless information.

Stats can also help you know what questions to ask a player.
