On the girls side this could change things.. 2 yrs older and stronger before going to a 4yr. Thoughts?

This Could be very helpful if they play in a decent JUCO league as well as knock out some 101 classes to lighten the load down the road. They could get a leg up over flakey college freshmen.

Most kids who play travel soccer in the DMV are from affluent families who live in competitive school districts. It’s hard to imagine many kids turning down 4-year colleges to play JUCO. I imagine most will go to the best school they can get into and just play club.

JUCO equals not good enough or HS grades not good enough, or some combo of prior with financial consideration. So small percent take a D1 spot after 2 years… not meaningful, Just another path for those that figure it out at a JUCO.

They definitely take gap years. It’s common at Ivies for coach to tell them they would take them after a gap.

This has no application except to the one kid. I doubt this is a trend. No story.

Not in California, which is a huge soccer powerhouse.
