[quote=Anonymous]It is still really early.  On the parents page of our Freshman daughter's school we have read so much about so many having a hard time being painfully homesick.  And often a component of that is their roommate/suitemates/hallmates are all off living their best lives and the homesick kids haven't found their groove yet.  
Consider that all of these kids have been weathering COVID for how many months now?  This has to be a tougher than normal transition.  And looking back on it, mine wasn't smooth as silk either and that was last century, pre-mobile phone and social media.  These kids do not have it easy. 
OP:  I didn't read all of the posts so I am not sure how far you are from her but maybe you could get a visit in,  take her to lunch but definitely not long.  See her in person and see how she is doing.  And maybe there are other things she could do beyond the club sports that could open the door to meeting more people. 
Hang in there. Wishing her and you better days as she eases into this.
