"What is never publicized is the girls who transfer out.

LI girl from Manhasset just transferred FROM Maryland as a JR to Syracuse. Maryland just won a National Championship and lost in the finals the year before...

LI girl (SOPH) transferred from Florida to Fairfield.

Another LI girls (JR at UVA) transferred to Stony Brook. All highly recruited players...

Why transfer? Because they made their decision prematurely? Not all sunshine and roses at their first choices? Balance of school, lax and being away from home too much? Not playing as much as expected or promised? New recruits more talented?

Can't expect our 8/9/10th graders to make educated decisions, they aren't educated enough at that age (15/16 year olds). That's what us parents should be helping them with!"


These posts are pathetic, do you believe if these kids waited until they were seniors they would not have been some who would have transferred. Look at kids who are seniors in high school right now , you think these kids who are desperately waiting to hear if they made it into their top choice are better equipped to make the decision as to what school to go to. Many of these early commits are mature kids whose parents were very involved in their decisions. It gets really old when all you experts know whats best for everybodys kids . Just sounds like your kid did not get the looks these kids did and you are jealous.
