My daughter has gone to school with this player since kindergarten when she moved to Florida. She has never been held back as they went to a small private school and believe me everyone would know-gossip central. She also played Recreation lax with her which they all started together in kindergarten as her dad was thier coach. So there was no hold back to make her older for sports ...I happen to agree it is crazy to keep a kid back in 7-8-9th grade to get ahead in sports...this is crazy(again my opinion-I know others feel different). So she may have started school late but with no knowledge of Athletics in the decision. Not this is going to change the topic here of early commit...but it sure wasn't a planned event on a hold back in 6th grade.

I hope she does well, as I hope all the kids with dreams of playing college lax at any level do well...it is great accomplishment to all these kids I see today with time management .....have no idea how they do it all....I sure couldn't do it.
