Lacrosse is over in 4 years. Your college degree is forever. Send your kid to the best academic school you can
And that they r a fit for. It does them no good if they get to Harvard and fail out.
Better to have tried and failed than to have never tried at all.
That sounds like and expensive approach to college. I prefer to pick strong academics where we know that my daughter can succeed and also play D1 because she wants to. I would have been totally thrilled with D3 and all their academically strong schools. But, she's worked hard to get to this point.
Amen!
I would rather teach my children to always set their goals high and to work diligently to exceed their goals while constantly looking for new challenges and setting new goals. What schools they go to and what level they play is not important. The important thing is that they set goals, work hard and enjoy what they are doing. Playing it safe and looking for the sure thing is no way to go through life.
