[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My advice to any younger parent who is going through the HS admissions process: be patient and do your homework. Do not simply just choose a HS school purely for lacrosse purposes as your son can easily be burnt out by the time he is a junior or senior. Lacrosse ends for 95% of these boys after HS and it’s getting harder and harder to play at the collegiate level as the game continues to grow. [/quote] This is great advice. Your kid needs to really like the school regardless of the lacrosse team, and the school's academic and social fit is really important. If your child is injured and can't play, you still want them to be successful and happy in their chosen school. I write this as a parent of a junior athlete who unfortunately has been injured enough that college play isn't a safe option. This has been a hard pill for him to swallow but we are grateful that he is still happy with his school. [/quote]
