Always feels like NESCAC is a playground for wealthy white don’t make high ed D1.

NESCAC’s are for the kids that didn’t get into Ivy’s. No one is choosing a NESCAC over an Ivy for the same price point.

Clueless

Sorry your kid wasn’t good enough to play at an Ivy.

Does anyone know how many Pride Black sent to any of these schools? Or even Capital Orange?

Most of the 2026 Cap Orange Team is committed to D1 or NESCAC. The girls who did not commit do not want to play in college.

How to tell us you know nothing about the NESCAC schools without saying so. Your "always feel[ing]" is way off and sounds like a jealous missive from the 80s. Where to start? These are some of the most rigorous academic institutions in the country and have made an ongoing commitment to diversity and finding some of the best students, and in this case, student-athletes in the country. Recent ISL grad could easily have gone high D1, for example. She has won 2 national championships while getting a great education instead. Others who couldn't have made high D1, appropriately continue playing the sports they love in D3 while getting a great education. And on the wealthy point--5 of the NESCAC schools, including the 2-time defending national champion for women's lax, are need blind for all applicants. Just uninformed across the board.

I agree with all of this EXCEPT - please stop acting like they are affordable to middle class americans. Most people make to much to get anything need based but not enough to afford $90K a year. Frankly, this comment from posters like you simply make you sound out of touch.

This is a terrible point as well. MANY turn down IVY for NESCAC even without sports so why would they not for sports? Why commit to work at a D1 level when you can go to an equal level academic school and have more time for yourself to study abroad etc?

Fair enough. To your general point: good friend from college just went through the process. Kid got some aid, but only enough to make it very difficult to pay anyway. Like out of state at a top public university. They aren’t wealthy. But daughter still going.

Not equal academically. Most people couldn’t name two NESCAC schools.

You know who can? Every recruiting director at every Wall St. bank and major consultancy, and every admissions director at every good law, business, and medical school. But this digression has gone on long enough.

How are people looking forward to the big recruiting year? Trusting the tournaments with club teams option? What about showcases? Are clubs supporting your players in applying? On campus prospect camps? How do you narrow your list if you can only go to 3-4 camps (reach, two targets, and a safety?)? Lots of hard questions. Any parents of older parents want to weigh in?

It is really important to play well during the fall 2025 season and show well as a team and team player. Coaches will make those preliminary lists from what they see at fall tournaments. Go to fall/winter prospect days to a couple of reach and target specific schools. Where have players from your club been recruited? Look to see the past 4-5 years of history club recruitment results—how does your daughter match up with those players. The recruiting coordinator and club coach can give feedback on what schools to target as well. You do not need showcases to get recruited but you do need to show well at tourneys and prospect camps.

That is the most important thing: that the players are happy, healthy, and going somewhere they want to be that sets them up for future career success after graduation.

$90k is a stretch even for people who are in the top 1%
