[quote=Anonymous]I'm the PP above with the DS who will be swimming D1 in the fall. My advice is to talk to as many teams as you can because the interviews are great practice for when his times improve and more D1s start calling (when they are allowed). The coaches have a good idea of how athletes will mature. Have him fill out the forms for schools that are even a reach academically and athletically just to get on the coach radar and then update that coach with times as they improve, Most swimmers commit mid to late Junior year or early Senior year, so you have some time for him to grow and mature. Keep the grades up because it gives him more options. Extracurriculars do not matter if he is being recruited for swimming. All that matter are times and grades/ scores for a pre-read.[/quote]
