I don’t really understand what this means?[/quote]

It means it's 90% mental.  The other half is physical.[/quote]

Not sure how your math works, but agree D1 athletes must have mental toughness. Playing D1 lacrosse can be a grind. Balancing 6 am lifts, team practices, personal time practicing, classes, grades, and a social life can be rough. A players day becomes the same routine. They have to want this to be their college experience.

Players have to be able to handle adversity. Many players are coming from being the top player on their high school teams to sitting the bench. In college, maybe just over half of the roster will get regular playing time during a season. Some will never see the field. That’s a lot of work put in for little return in playing time. And coaches never stop recruiting. Players have to mentally fight through this.

While important though, to play at a high level in D1 players must be great athletes and have speed. The game is getting faster. College sports is just heading this direction, players are getting bigger and stronger. This doesn’t mean you have to be a certain height or weight or be able to lift so much, but the bigger faster players with good skills will have a big advantage.[/quote]
