[quote=Anonymous]There is a huge range of lacrosse at D3 level.  The top 20 are very competitive, and the top 21-40 are still pretty good. Lower end is very weak.

High academic schools start their serious recruiting in June after junior year, but they start to reach out much earlier. Only the good lax, weak academic schools. recruit much before summer of junior year. NESCAC, W&L, and other high academic good lax schools will do an academic pre-read after your junior year. Offers typically start in late June.

While there is a lot of debate, the top ten D3 Schools would be very competitive with bottom half of D1 schools. Often an Amherst or W&L will have more 3 star recruits that half of D1 schools.

Lacrosse Masters is decent event, but the best showcases are invite only and not pay to attend.  LM format is to have 3-4 coaches run practices and games in round robin format so that each players is able to play for each coach at some point. They do have mostly head coaches and not low level assistants of these programs. Last year, more of the actual coaching was done by D3 coaches than the D1 coaches, but the high level D1 head coaches were there. The format and event was pretty good, but not a very high coach to player ratio. My son at least got to introduce himself and play to some degree in front of several coaches of programs in which he was interested.  Additionally, he met several coaches that had reached out to him. It's not Maverick Showtime, but it was a quality event. If you want to play high level D3 at good academic school, I would do it once.
