[quote=Anonymous]Agree with the PPs - crew is the right choice. It's grueling but she won't be at a disadvantage since most kids in this area start in HS. Track/cross-country aren't bad second choices. I was a non-athletic girl who started running in college and I actually did enjoy it. And one counter-point: she doesn't need to be cool in HS. And starting a sport almost certainly won't make her cool. There are SO many ECs and activities in any big DMV public HS - she'd really be better off doing whatever she actually enjoys than torturing herself with a sport that she's taking up only for appearances. And btw the amount of time some of these HS sports take is not helpful for academics - which are going to be what makes or breaks her college options.[/quote]
