[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Capital seems to be pushing girls to top academic schools that may or maybe not be good at lacrosse. At a certain level that's fine. I'm sure most parents are happy with that. Personally, I'd like to see more development and more challenging practices. There's no reason there can't be more girls going to better lacrosse schools. Feels like they are resting on the Capital name whereas other clubs are genuinely trying to get better as players and as teams. Just one parents 2 cents.[/quote] Not this worn out conversation AGAIN! Capital is not pushing girls to high academics. These girls are choosing Ivy League schools over top lacrosse programs aren't doing so out of necessity; they're making a deliberate choice. These players have the talent and several had offers to play at top 10 lacrosse schools but opted for the Ivy League/High Academic because they CAN. Lacrosse rankings do not mean a lot to many players. They leveraged lacrosse to get into the best school on their list which may not be the best school on your list. 
Choosing an Ivy League/high academic path is not a compromise or last resort. Even with the option to play at top lacrosse programs, several of the girls prioritized academics for their college lax experience. I know mine did as well as two other teammates. 
It's important to recognize that these players have the ability to play for top 10 college lacrosse teams but choose the Ivies/high academic schools for a reason. I genuinely hope your player finds the perfect fit for their goals, whether it's at a top lacrosse school or elsewhere. I hope you realize that development and improvement often require dedication beyond regular team practices. The top athletes are those who put in the extra work independently to elevate their game. Relying solely on team practices can limit potential, especially by the high school recruiting season. If your player is not working on her own development and challenging herself she will not be a top recruit and then she won't have ivies or top 10 ranked options on September 1. [/quote]
