Agreed on the D1 parent denial. There is a lot more to college lax than D1 (I'm talking to you yj parent). There is no professional league so I say let the girls, and their families, go to the college of THEIR choice (not where you, yj parent, think they should go). Over many years I've seen lots of wlax games and I can agree that quite a few D2, and some D3, teams could beat quite a few D1 teams. D1 is not all it's cracked to be. As a disclaimer, my daughter was a D1 player, but we respect all college wlax players. Don't buy the hype of your club director...go where YOU want to go. You're paying the club a lot of money so they can help you go where you want to go...screw them and where they think you should go. It's your money and your choice.
A lot of D3 schools are way better academic institutions than the D1 schools that the parents errh players of the top teams are jumping at anyway.
Ohio State, Penn State, Jacksonville can't hold a candle to Williams, Amherst, Tufts etc. [/quote]
If you want to play intramural lax, those D3 schools are perfect. [/quote]
