Yes. I just saw this note under 'Best Practices'

"Maven uses the depth of a dependency in the tree when resolving conflicts
using a nearest-wins approach. Using the dependency *grouping technique
above pushes those dependencies one level down in the tree*. Keep this in
mind when choosing between grouping in a pom or using dependencyManagement
in a parent POM". 
I was grouping the dependencies in the parent. Thanks for the information.
