[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have one still in college and she followed the same path as her older sister.  My oldest daughter does not regret playing D1 lax, yes she actually hd 2 offers, one school consistently ranked in the top 30 and the other school ranked around 43.  However, to one of the pp out there’s comments, she chose to play at a NESCAC and had a blast and of course competed.  Now she is a resident in a hospital and going to become a doctor.  Guess my point is, no matter what your daughter’s path is, she has to be happy and comfortable within her surroundings.  For some the D1 path is all they dream about, for others it’s not.  College is also what you make of it, but I do admit that because she played lacrosse, she has friends for life and I also keep up with the former parents as well.  It’s been a wonderful ride so my advice is- enjoy it while it lasts and your daughter will figure it out…..[/quote]

This.....D3 high academic over random D1 any day....I wish kids and parents both would stop saying "Suzy is playing D1" .... who cares, it's a crappy school!!!![/quote]

The high academic top D1 (eg, Northwestern) is the big prize. Many of us are seriously invested in lacrosse, but let’s don’t forget about academics!  [/quote]

A big prize for sure for the proud parents at their cocktail parties in the DMV!! But not necessarily for their daughter.  If your daughter decides to go play at an top lacrosse school like Northwestern, the expectation is that lacrosse and the lacrosse team come first (and second).  Not to mention that the competition to play will be like nothing that your daughter has likely dealt with...making Capital will feel like a layup.  And, yes, still need to layer on a level of academics at a school like Northwestern that your daughter has almost definitely not experienced, especially since she is spending 30/40 hours a week training and playing lacrosse.
