I posted last year how the Yellow Jacket Class of 2013 did in terms of playing time with their respective college teams. Now that 2015 has passed by the class is now two years into their college careers. the following is my non-scientific findings. Remember this is not a test of quality but how each girl has impacted the playing time for their restive teams. This covers D1, D2 and D3.
I have four categories: Impact (played in almost all games), Played (played in a significant number of games), Not Significant (played in a handful of games) and Did Not Play (had no statistics for team they committed to; I also checked to see if playing for a different school).
A refresher of last years numbers:
Impact: 30 or 45% Played: 7 or 11% Not Significant: 24 or 36% Did Not Play: 5 or 8%
2015 Numbers
Impact: 37 or 56% Played: 8 or 12% Not Significant: 8 or 12% Did Not Play: 13 or 20%
33 players stayed at the same level, 14 saw less playing time, 19 saw more.
These are very good numbers. The average drop rate for D1 is 55% (players who do not stay on the roster for four years). Still, there was a significant number of girls who no longer play (or may red shirt if they changed schools). Check the thread out in a year to see how the class is doing!
(I'm going to post this on other threads as well)
that's great for other parents to see what actually goes on...what are the stats for the class of 2014 I wonder!!
