[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Capital 2017 team which was arguably one of the best CLC teams ever had 21 D1 commits (the entire roster) of the 21 who entered college on a roster 13 were on rosters at the end of their 4 years. 8 had stopped playing. It is a major time commitment and when you are not seeing the field it can become too much to balance.  Pick your school on academics and experience, not lacrosse.

Agree 1000% with the above.

It would be interesting to understand of those who quit playing how many chose the school they committed to based on personal interests and academics versus committing to a school that was never on their radar prior to offers being made. I’d also be interested in how many players who quit stay at the school they committed to.

The numbers for the 2017 CLC class suggest 40% did not play all four years. I’ve heard the number is much higher across the board. I suspect much of this has to do with players committing to schools they were never really interested in.

For those with younger players aspiring to play in college don’t make their club experience all about getting any offer. Make it about them identifying schools they want to attend and if a lacrosse offer follows that is the icing on the cake.
