[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How much scholarship money - each year - did each receive? Honestly~[/quote]

D1- partial scholarship about 20% of total tuition (averaged)
D3- nothing they don't award scholarships/money[/quote]

At 20% and zero, they can't be doing it for the compensation. Did they choose to attend their respective colleges for other reasons other than the opportunities to play lacrosse?  College sports require year round conditioning and commitment to the team. Is it a worthwhile sacrifice for those who clearly love the sport?[/quote]

No it definitely was not for the compensation:) They both attended prestigious schools that they knew would carry some significant weight down the road in terms of entering the world with those credentials/diploma. For D1 yes it is year round but for a serious athlete who has been involved with sports since about 8 years of age, he was used to being active and athletic year round anyway, for D3 its limited in the fall/winter and accelerates as spring nears.[/quote]
