If you want to complain about the time period, blame HS ball. It is different in every state. Some states play until Memorial Day and other states start school after the first weekend in August. While some teams are from areas where a player can participate in both simultaneously, some state NFHS bodies forbid it. That leaves every ASA association in the country less than 2 months to hold states, regionals, CNQs and ANQs.
To lend some creedence to Tom's original post, this is exactly why USSSA has both Spring and Fall State Qualifiers, so that every team wishing to try to win a berth to a State Tourney has ample opportunity. They have also introduced their point system as another road to State and National Tournaments.
