That's just silly. To get into MD, UNC, UVA, etc as a lacrosse player you only need to score over 1000 on your SAT. Those schools can safely assume that due to the demographics of lacrosse playing youth, 99% of the kids will be able to meet that requirement. It's a whole different ballgame when you are required to get a 1350 or 1400. The Ivies have self-imposed rules against this and offer no athletic money regardless.

With that uncertainty, coaches are going to try and get their 2021s now. If implementation date is Sept 2021, then this summer will be a feeding frenzy. Some have started now to get the jump.
