It appears that Raymond is differentiating between those team members that are voted, or appointed, as team captains (those that show up at the pregame meeting), and those who are considered to be captains by virtue of the NFHS rule because they are one of the five players from a team on the floor at one time. Practical versus literal. I get it. I didn't, but I do now.
