[quote=Anonymous]Ds is a rising sophomore. He qualified for Regionals but did not qualify for states. Looking at Runrecruit, his times are not D1 recruit times. Do most runners hit those times from the beginning/freshman year? Should he be concerned? Is he just not D1 material or is it possible kids don't start to hit those times until they get older/spend more time in the sport? One can only shave off so much time. Can it really be done in 2 years? At what point should we hang up the D1 idea if he is not hitting recruit times? End of sophomore year? End of junior? When?

Should he just accept he isn't D1 material and focus on D3. He meets D3 recruit times. The only issue is he wants to study engineering and other than MIT there are not a lot of D3 schools we're aware of that are good for engineering. Most seem to be liberal arts colleges. DS does not have MIT grades. He has a 4.0 unweighted but he isn't a kid who will take tons of APs, which MIT would require.
