[quote=Anonymous]My junior DS is interested in running track in college. He says his times are probably good enough to get on a D3 roster. 
He'll be my first to go through the college app process plus I have no clue how the sports aspect works. Our hs is getting a new coach so not if they will be a good resource.

Do athletes have to do something earlier in terms of setting up a profile on-line or indicating interest to coaches while they are juniors?
We're going to tour some schools this year, and I don't know if it's appropriate to ask to meet a coach and see facilities.
I get that the D3 kids need to embrace their school for the education they'll get, and not just focus on the sports experience. 
I just don't want to miss some critical step before my son starts applying to colleges a year from now.

Oh and I keep seeing all these online ads from services (Crimson Education for one) that are offering to assist with the sports recruitment process, but I only want to sign up for something that is legit useful.

thanks![/quote]
