[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No rising 9th grader is going to be noticed at a college camps like Hopkins.  You get noticed because you and your club team has been seen a recruiting event and/or you've been seen at a individual recruiting event.

From the perspective of the college coaches, their summer camps are a way to make money and see some HS kids up close that they are interested in.  This does not include rising freshmen.  You should only attend a college lacrosse camp because your son sees it as a way to get better and/or have fun.[/quote]

Our neighbor's son was identified by Navy at their camp back in the day and is currently on the Navy roster.  They of course followed up on him as he got older via club play and recruiting camps like Nike Bluechip.  I agree that traditionally only older players got a look at college camps, but as recruiting ages have pushed back they are looking at the younger players now too.  (Have heard this from several Baltimore friends whose sons attended Hopkins camp and ever since then were on the radar there.)

This is still only an infinitesimal percentage of cases, thus, I agree with your overall point that one should attend to get better and/or have fun.[/quote]
