The only ones that care about D1, D2 and or D3 are the parents of the players. Look at the sidelines at most college games. It's a ghost town and for the most part, it's mostly player's parents at the games. Big picture.....nobody other than parents care what division your daughter will play. In many chases, do your daughter a huge favor and get off the D1 or bust mentality. Many options to choose from if you let go of that D1 dream you have for your student athlete.
This statement makes the most sense on this entire forum. Parents are the only consistent fans at many of these games D 1,2 & 3 then you get your friends or other sport teams watch maybe a half then go about their business. I understand the power teams playing the weaker teams and beating them by 15-20 goals the parents don't even last at those games because it's boring enough with all the whistles & when it's not competitive it's horrible to watch. Choose the school that best fits the kids personality, ability to be competitive in the classroom as well as on the field and just enjoy the experience because it is not always roses for everyone involved. Win or lose have a few laughs, enjoy spending time with your kid and be supportive of everyone including the officials!
