[quote=Anonymous]Most college tennis teams have 8-12 players, many on a 5 yr schedule. So being extremely optimistic let’s say they take on 4 new players a year. So for all T20 schools that would be 80 players (again, this # is much higher than reality), then know about 60% of those slots go to international players, so at most you are left with about 30 open slots. So you probably need to be in top 50 of your age bracket to have a shot at being recruited/getting a partial scholarship. Tennis is tough as well since many tend to have better academics. Your DC would been heavily recruited if he was in the top 600 for football since it is larger teams and the academics of average players are not as high. Sucks, but that is the reality of playing a sport with a small team size. [/quote]
