My friends' son has three offers on the table. One is to a top ten team but for VERY little money and good school, one is for a much lower level D1 team, more money better school, third is for an academy.

Now, balance education with cost with lacrosse experience.....How the heck is a 15 year old kid supposed to make this decision? I played D1, he did not so he is looking to me for some guidance. I have none.

We went through the same thing except not an academy and he was the ripe old age of 16

1) top academics, OK lacrosse, no money
2) ok academic, good lacrosse, very good money
3) very good academic, very good lacrosse, OK money

at the end of the day my son chose what felt right to him (#3) - although probably a person should opt for the highest rated academics a lot goes into the decision and unfortunately money is a large part of the decision - he was thrilled with his choice.

good luck to you and your son on this difficult decision - could be a lot worse and that would be if he had no choices.

Roster sizes of 50! You will be lucky to get a .3 scholarship to a $55k school

Full rides my [lacrosse], put down the kool aid your kid like most others will be playing at D3 SUNY school


There are full tuition scholarships and there are kids that go to school for free based on their family's financial situation. Its rare but some kids do get what amounts to a full ride. Probably 1 or 2 kids per team. I would say the average scholarship is between $5000-$10000.


You can count on one hand kids that play travel lacrosse from LI who will go to college for free based on need. Lacrosse is a rich mans game


There are plenty of kids on Long Island from families that earn less than $150k/year (the rough cutoff for substantial aid at most Ivies). Not every D1 player comes from Manhasset or Garden City.


$150? maybe for the ivies but for all other schools its about half of that. Ask anyone you share a sideline with who has kids that went through the FAFSA process except for a staford load most get nothing. They do academic money so tell your kid to study study study!


He is not referring to the Fafsa, you have to be dirt poor to get any money from the government. What he is referring to is the schools need based financial aid system. They base your tuition on your ability to pay, the theory being that if the kid can get into the school then he should have to opportunity to go there regardless of money.

I'd imagine that he still needs to go through the formal process but I'm sure he'll have lots of help "navigating" it. Congrats to him.

Ha, navigating...that was good!

And having NAPS as an option makes the process very easy.

2020's really aren't "8th graders" any longer and recruiting for the best of the best 2020's is in full swing like it or not. The U S Naval academy is a great place . Personally I think its a great thing. And the old argument how does a 14 year old know what they want to do just dosen't fly, because the answer is they usually don't, but in reality there are more than plenty of college sophomores, juniors and grads that really don't know either.

The real answer is that he probably isn't 14! Especially if he is from Maryland or Mass. There is a hold back epidemic. Go look at the ages of the kids from the under Armour compared to the NY kids. It is a year across the board. Good luck to these coaches who think that the best kids who are a year or two older in 9th and 10th grade, are still going to be the best kids when they get to college. Half these kids didn't hit puberty yet. This might be the best thing for the non traditional power house teams. There will be a lot more kids fall through the cracks and a lot more disappointed coaches in the ACC and Big 10!

Hope the new rule does go into effect for 2017.

So just a few years ago the “early recruiting” train started down the tracks. I wanted to take a look at the success of it. I was actually shocked about what it looks like. I would expect others have looked at this also.
The class of 2014 first 12 commits as sophomores, 10 of 12 offensive players (1 LSM, 1 G)
Virginia - 6
Hopkins – 2
UNC -2
Maryland – 1
Towson – 1

2 Players are no longer playing D1 – 1 MCLA one looks to be out of lax. Neither the Goalie nor the LSM have any starts in the past 2 years.

Other than 1 offensive player who panned out (over 100 pts) the remaining 7 are see limited playing time with a combined total of 28 pts in 2 years across 7 of the first 12 commits for 2014.

2016 Stats Leaders –
1. Committed as a Jr
2. Cant see when committed, was 181 on laxpower list
3. Committed as a Soph/but changed as a Sr
4. Committed as a Jr
5. Committed as a Sr

Very interesting if incomplete information. It will be more instructive to look back at player outcomes as the 2016 HS class moves through college, say in calendar years 2019 and 2020. In my mind, 2016 was the first really early year, where freshman were recruited (which has now sadly progressed to 8th graders).
Hoping new rule proposal gets adopted and is actually effective. Will ease pressure on very immature kids and reduce benefits of reclassing

I thought all Chaminade freshmen played JV? Of course the parents and club guys might be able to pressure otherwise so as not to "embarrass" and early commit. This parent and club coach move has been wrecking high school lacrosse in the DMV for a few years now. Bad for the game and puts kids on te field for political reasons instead of having them earn it. Surprised if this is happening in LI too.

True, though the odds of a good player like this (one who is committed/hyped) falling through the cracks on tryout day are slim.

Good to know. Maryland and DC the parents and club guys go nuclear over this stupid thing to have their kid on varsity in 9th grade, deserving or not. Half the coaches in the IAC quit and said 'see ha' this year. It's gotten pathetic.

There are no froshs and sophs needed. Parents think their kids are great. Will get rocked on varsity any of these players. St ants and chammy play very weak teams, where some of these players stat padded on public school teams.

Very tough schedule and team. Look at the rank. No freshmen on that team.

2020's really aren't "8th graders" any longer and recruiting for the best of the best 2020's is in full swing like it or not. The U S Naval academy is a great place . Personally I think its a great thing. And the old argument how does a 14 year old know what they want to do just dosen't fly, because the answer is they usually don't, but in reality there are more than plenty of college sophomores, juniors and grads that really don't know either.


The real answer is that he probably isn't 14! Especially if he is from Maryland or Mass. There is a hold back epidemic. Go look at the ages of the kids from the under Armour compared to the NY kids. It is a year across the board. Good luck to these coaches who think that the best kids who are a year or two older in 9th and 10th grade, are still going to be the best kids when they get to college. Half these kids didn't hit puberty yet. This might be the best thing for the non traditional power house teams. There will be a lot more kids fall through the cracks and a lot more disappointed coaches in the ACC and Big 10!


Take a look at the NY Highlight Under armour roster, plenty of early birthdays on that list. Its not just MD and Canada that do it......

Basically its ACC and Big Ten teams that are playing the pre-high school commitment game. Although Duke and UVA don't appear to be doing it.
