Go to the best college possible. If your DD can get into, say UVA for example, but lacrosse is not an option-- and that's the best school she can get into and would be happy there-- then go to that school.

Best of luck to all the 2025s in finding the best school for them. At the end of the day, to me, the most important thing is-- the person should be happy and in a good place mentally.

This is good advice. A good number of commits will not continue playing all four years.

And, at many of the top D1s (from lax prospective), there is also the option of playing club rather than varsity.

This is generally good advice. #1 being that the young woman is happy and healthy.

However, a driven to play in D1 young woman may not want the best academic schools that want her. So she choses perhaps a lower academic ranked school that offers her what she wants and needs to thrive academically and personally in order to play. This too is just as great.

One should not judge these these young women as they must make the decision for themselves based on their preferences, personal and family data points.

Agreed! Also, it’s important to recognize that not all majors benefit enough from a high academic to justify the extra cost (at least for undergrad). Lacrosse likely knocks a third off for a D1 recruit, but if the tuition is $85K per year, parents are still paying more than for a state school. And in state schools like Tech, UVA, and JMU have huge alumni networks in the D.C. area that can be an asset getting employed after college.

I thought the D3s waited until after summer academic pre-reads?

You're thinking of the NESCAC schools.

Some other D3s follow this too and I figured Gettysburg might.

Nope, not just NESCAC schools - other D3 high academics do them too, like University of Chicago, Washington & Lee, etc.

DIII high academics outside of NESCAC do pre-reads as early as January. W&L, U of C, Claremonts and others use their ability to commit players before NESCAC as an advantage.

Yeah, Gettysburg is a great school and great town. Tons of history there.

I hear Cap O will have a few more after this weekend- Several waiting for NESCAC cycle

Any others @ Pride?

I'm shocked the remaining goalie hasn't committed. She's nationally ranked and an amazing goalie.

Agree. She goes to Potomac School though so must be super smart and driven. Betting she wants a top NESCAC.

It's okay for said player to visit schools and weigh all options. Relax....

Is this true? Heard she was going to Cornell.

From what I heard, she could have gone to many schools. Great student. Great player. Great young lady. This is a perfect fit.
