Let them find the right fit of academics with lacrosse being a student athlete not athlete student.


My daughter was told engineering wasn't a good fit for her and the team. Now realistically she was a mid roster player so the coaches weren't cutting her much slack. My older daughter knows two girls who played for D1 teams ranked 75-100 where they were encouraged not to pursue nursing and now after they have graduated in four years they they are going back for another 2 years to a local school to get their nursing degrees. I don't get it but their parents were very happy they played in college
