There shouldn't be any debate - there are a lot of girls who will pick NESCAC over any D1 below the top academic tier. NESCAC seems to be an amazing choice - awesome schools where you can play lacrosse, may even get a lot of playing time, and lacrosse kept in perspective. Believe or not, there are a lot of girls who want to play, but don't want it to take over their entire college experience. This year the best girl on the D3 championship team was initially committed to BC! But then she decided D3 was the way to go for her. I don't think that thought is as uncommon as some on here seem to believe.

VA Metro is good for all Divisions, Pride is, umm.. lets say, still working out the kinks in recruiting. Many on Capital A go D1, but a lot of the B team go D3. If you want D3 you can do the research on the type of school and most of the outreach on your own.

MC Elite has a strong recruiting record and most of the girls are on the field freshman year, testimony to development and coaching. The 23s wanted D3 so no bashing needed. 2022 Michigan recruit is Under Armour All America.

MC Elite is on the downtrend. Stay away.

these girls wouldnt be caught dead playing for Bucknell or Lehigh.
There are some on our team right now playing their junior summer to appeal to these schools. Everyone else has already been recruited.
thats why.

What?! NESCAC schools are among the most elite academic programs in the country. Middlebury just won the national title. Recruits going to NESCACs are definitely not leftovers.

Good schools and many are lax-competitive, too.
