[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in Virginia. I’m having a hard time seeing how a Div 3 NE school is going to be a better option than UVA. I see college commit lists and the players are ending up at schools I would rank below UVA.

If there’s little to no scholarship money, why the obsession over getting “recruited”, especially in our case if we feel out son has the ability to go to UVA based on academics and test scores?

You don't see an advantage to playing lacrosse for Tufts over going to UVA?[/quote]

Plus not all players have the academic edge needed and lax gives them a bump plus our kid wants to play in college and no way he's getting recruited to UVA. If yours does and could care less if he plays in college then sure he can go to UVA.  Ours wants and frankly needs the focus that lax gives him to make it through college. I agree that the tricky part is that a kid's playing ability and a strongly competitive college happening to be interested do not always align.  At the same time, most Ivies probably have 1-2 kids per team there for their grades so if that's where your kid's stats are at, he should go for it and see what happens.[/quote]
