[quote=Anonymous]Baseball tends to be far more racially integrated at my son's school. It takes patience, concentration and a strong ego. Most of the lax boys are white, so my AA kid, although he enjoys playing, didn't feel like he would feel at home with the team, and his coaches in other sports discouraged him from trying out. At his school, the football players are viewed as the best athletes overall -- many football players also do track and field because they are fast and strong. When he was younger, he also tried ice hockey, competitive swimming, (which is by are the biggest time commitment) and basketball. He enjoyed them all, but by high school the time commitments were such that he decided on doing two. [/quote]
