[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"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"
There is not a lot of debate and this is just not true.  Not one D3 school would make the tournament and the top 5 D3 are better than the bottom 10D1 but let's not push it. RIT and W&L are not beating a team like Ohio State, UMBC, or Marquette on a regular basis and those teams are in the bottom half.   And please spare the 3 star player that is just a joke.  Inside lacrosse sells a three star ranking for $299.  I also love the kid had multiple D1 offers.  That is not true an offer is only made after player makes a verbal commitment.  Getting invited to camp is not an offer.  Finally really does not matter how much HS time the player has played as a freshman or sophmore.  They can ball out and get noticed this summer at the events [b]but also do the prospect days as well.[/quote][/b]

Totally agree on attending prospect days (particularly for the D3s). In my 2 DS's experiences, the D1 prospect days are bigger and are often money grabs/income generators for the assistant coaches. Your DS would have to stand on his head to get noticed. D3 prospect days tend to be much smaller and incredibly valuable. I seem to recall one of my sons telling me that on his NESCAC team, 85% of his class went to a prospect day (and some crazy high % attended at least 1 Lacrosse Masters). My kids found it helpful to have one of their coaches (HS or club recruiter) reach out to the school before a LM or prospect day event in order to help them on their radar. [/quote]
