[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you assuming travel sports parents ignore academics? My kids play travel sports and make excellent grades. [/quote] Because they think that if soccer Larla says she’s going to a “mediocre” college, it MUST be because larla had terrible test scores in easy classes. Nevermind that I can name dozens of kids who went to small d3 schools because of excellent merit aid, small class sizes, and close-knit community, but DCUM prefers to judge from afar. [/quote] And, keep in mind that Larla perhaps could have spent her time at piano lessons instead and still ended up at the same mediocre college. Maybe that’s the best fit for her.[/quote]
