[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids with real athletic talent and promise are not in high school athletics.  Maybe if time allows but for the most part they are doing travel leagues, AAU etc.[/quote]

My neighbor did both and now plays professionally. AAU is normally in the summer when school is out. [/quote]

That's nice, but I'm talking about true talented DC athletes.  They are not going to Wilson vs Banneker.  They are going private to Good Counsel, DeMatha, Bullis, Georgetown Prep, Montrose Christian (Kevin Durant) etc.  Heck Friendship Charter probably has more college athletes than Wilson.  A poster claimed they won't consider Banneker due to lack of sports I was just pointing out ways to make it work.  Be in a safe academic school and have athletics.  Only true problem that remains is some white parents don't want their kid to be the only one.  Banneker has seen an increase in Asian and Hispanic students lately, maybe that will attract more whites.[/quo

Understood and yes and my neighbr went to Bullis on an athletic scholorship. [/quote]
