[quote=Anonymous]I would differ on two points having gone through the process for both D1 and D3.  Grades do matter.  My DS is at a high academic D1 program and the coach was very concerned about the team AI throughout the process.  Expectations differ across players but if you bring a higher than average AI to the table it can very much enhance you as a recruit, if your skill set already has you in serious consideration.  You can google average AIs across Ivy League schools.

We never attended a D1 prospect day that had a majority or even serious minority, of definite D1 level recruits.  There were many more D1 want to be recruits and lots of ball hogging that made them frustrating and discouraging in our personal experience.  Getting in front of lots of coaches at tournaments like NLF and NHLHS while playing with your actual teams as well as events like Nike National and the old Under Armour tournaments were more valuable but not sure how those last two are currently as far as coach attendance.

I would also say cast a wide net, communicate regularly with your high school and club coaches to make sure your targets are reasonable, send out lots and lots of good film and communicate with college coaches regularly about your upcoming summer game schedules as they approach and don't get discouraged about the void into which your emails seem to fall.  Also have some D3 schools on your list and start working them now like D1s.  If D1 doesn't work out the better D3 programs don't want to be considered after thoughts.[/quote]
