[quote=Anonymous]The only sustainable differentiator I see in kids 14-15 years old that can hold up in a field sport no matter what is speed. All kids will grow some, and will fill out and could lift weights to get stronger and fill out. But a kid who is just plain faster in soccer, football, lacrosse to name three has an advantage you can't coach and the kid can't just get to the gym and work on. In some sports like football size is real critical, but I don't believe that in lacrosse. It didn't shock me when the 2-3 bloody fast kids locally from my son's club lacrosse class got the attention of colleges early. It did shock me that the dozens and dozens more who aren't faster did. I wonder why it is in a sport where speed is so critical that it also isn't measured by the college coaches evaluating. Wouldn't a 40 dash or shuttle run time come in handy? I've never seen a recruit list one. I doubt any college recruiter has that data. Why is that?[/quote]
