[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In some sports at harvard the athletes are dominated by international students. So its not even American athletes getting the boost. [/quote] Correct. [/quote] The odds of American kids being athletically recruited to Ivies for niche sports such as fencing, squash, field hockey,etc… are slim because of this.[/quote] Harvard Rosters Men's squash: 8 foreign 4 US Women's squash: 5 foreign 9 US Men's fencing: 1 foreign 13 US Women's fencing: 0 foreign 15 US Field hockey: 13 foreign 13 US Doesn't look like the odds are too bad for US students in niche sports. [/quote] Field hockey is the second-most played sport in the world. Hardly a “niche” sport. At the D1 level American players are definitely competing with Europeans. Even if the roster isn’t majority Netherlands players, they dominate the NCAA. [/quote]
