[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If a kid didn’t see the field as a sophomore at their HS (top DMV private school), what are the chances of getting a call Sept 1? Can club ball make that much of a difference this summer? [/quote]

Yes, but a lot depends on why he didn’t see the field. It’s also very possible he just isn’t that great, and nothing is going to make a difference. [/quote]

Take a look at NL 2027 roster and that team has consistently been in the top 10 non national club teams for years. For the most part, the kids who got minutes for varsity as sophomores are playing at better schools: Gtown, Cornell, Brown 2x, Dartmouth. The kids that didn't are going to good, but not the top end, schools: Nova 2x, St. Bon, Holy Cross, Delaware, CNU, Mercer. Then there are players who played as sophomores where the lax world doesn't respect and are uncommitted: the 2 publics (one was a very late CNU), H (reclassing). The specialty players are a different category bc of the limited roster spots.

Also, don't discount your high school will inadvertently hurt your kid's chances bc they can't handle the "why didn't this player play." They'll likely say something along the lines of "he wasn't good enough." High school PE teachers as coaches aren't very adept at the nuance.

Bottom line - getting on the field as a sophomore means a lot. College coaches aren't that smart and will rely on, if he played then he must be better logic. [/quote]
