[quote=Anonymous]First of all, calling out the subtle racism from posters who keep suggesting minorities have a big advantage and white kids are on an uneven playing field in the college admissions process.  Just stop.  I don’t hear you calling out the kids of alumni for getting special legacy treatment.

Yes, all colleges want diversity and gender balance in their class.  And they all want kids with good grades and well-rounded extracurricular backgrounds.

If you spent as much money on tutors as you do on club lacrosse you’d increase your child’s college prospects tenfold.

Secondly, club lacrosse isn’t the recruiting difference maker that club directors would like you to believe.  If your kid is good enough to play D1 and has a mildly decent HS coach, he will get noticed and help with recruiting.

MadLax, and every club, loves to market how many of their players commit to D1 schools. And they do deserve SOME credit. But more often than not, it's the HS teams that determine kids' lacrosse futures.

Remember the "Hey Ungrateful Quitter" e mail? The threat was that the club coach/director could exert his power to influence the decisions of HS and college coaches. Newsflash: It was a hollow, empty threat that was proven to be false and embarrassingly exposed CM's lack of control over the process. If your kid can play, they will get opportunities.[/quote]
