[quote=Anonymous]Two kids playing sports and thriving academically at Yale. Impossible to add up the related costs but you are looking at it backwards--both played multiple sports from K to high school graduation and it all starts as an interest, passion and great friend group of teammates. No one knows what is going to pan out as far as athletic development, size, agility, speed etc. on top of self motivation. Once you get to the point that you realize serious college commitment opportunities are likely to pan out (and there are always risks of serious injuries resulting a major setback at any point) it has become a lifestyle that they are thrilled to be able to continue for another four years. And whoever mentioned Ivy athletes being mocked by NARPS has no idea who is really having fun on these campuses. And getting great jobs after they graduate as well. You are very very lucky if it all works out. [/quote]
