Is it a situation where an Ivy League, D3, or Div. 1 school that isn't going to offer you an athletic scholarship an offer to be on their team, you have to accept before you know what the aid package is going to be?





Yes, you do. They give a scholarship offer, but Financial aid isn’t part of the calculation— if you are a financial aid candidate you probably haven’t been jetting around the country on the club lax scene.


Scholarships for lacrosse are divided to 1/4 at best. But to your question, you NEED to have the affordabilty convo with admissions and coach. They will work with you, but you need to be happy honest and ask to talk to admissions for a pre-read.


Wait, the player can talk to admissions for the pre-read? I thought the coach worked with admissions on the pre-reads. That's how it worked for my kid, who was recently put on pause because admissions said grades weren't there.

Translation: 'You're probably not very good if you're not wealthy, but (implicitly) thats how we like it'. What a terrible thing to say.

The Pride 23 team went 2-2 and the 24’s went 3-1. Both teams lost to CLC in competitive games.


TSIC app shows Pride 23 went 1-3 in Dallas.


Still amused how a team goes 1-3 for the weekend and then brags about a 3-goal loss. Tough year.


Amused that this dude keeps dunking on a team that they beat by a handful after being tied late in the game. Lets crown them.

These "commitments" are completely non-binding. On both sides. They sound great and I think are generally well-intentioned, but both schools and athletes break these commitments every year for a variety of reasons. Typically, on the school side, it's either the athlete hasn't held up their end of the bargain (e.g., grades, discipline issues, etc.) or there has been a coaching change and the new coach doesn't hold the same opinion of the athlete. On the athlete side, I've seen it either because the individual decides they no longer like that school as much as they used to or, more frequently, because a better offer comes along (e.g., Ivy, higher tied D-1, scholarship, etc.).

It becomes binding when they sign the national letter of intent during their senior year.

It’s hard to get recruited when the Pride head coach is yelling and screaming on the sidelines.

I’m sure they’ve seen this act and it’s worn thin.

This post makes zero sense.

At Presidents Cup, both Capital ‘23 and ‘24 Blue teams beat the same year Pride Black teams. Capital teams also only lost one game apiece while Pride teams each only won a single game. [/quote/]

Wins/Losses that are comparable is not the discussion, except in the context of Pride not getting their similarly talented kids recruited.

The college coaches have not completed their ‘23 recruiting class. Just stop.

The Pride 2024 parents have been suspiciously quiet after the drubbing Capital 2024 put on them Saturday.
