[quote=Anonymous]We never got into travel sports when DS was younger, but that may be a function of being in NYC where its was less of a "thing." He played for local little league teams until high school, where he now plays on his school team and for a travel team in the summer. He's a junior now, and we're in the beginning of the recruitment process because he would like to play for an academic D1 or D3 school. He dedicates a lot of time off-season to improving his skills, and he works with a trainer and a pitching coach on most evenings after school. He has always loved to play, but he didn't become truly committed to it until his early teens. The motivation comes from him, and we support him as much as possible. The understanding is that school comes first, and part of what drives him to succeed academically is knowing that it will make him a more attractive candidate to college coaches. [/quote]
