varsity teams
School's best athletes
Varsity teams are the primary athletic squads representing a school or university in competition, as distinguished from junior varsity or freshman teams.
Making varsity typically means you're among the best players in your age group at that institution: She made varsity soccer as a sophomore.
The term comes from an old pronunciation of "university."
