WOW GREAT ARTICLE Only half of D1 schools are fully funded The ratio of lax girls getting athletic money is 48-1 82% of D3 players get academic aid The average D3 player gets 17K The average D1 athletic offer is $14k (less) The average D1 athletic award is 20% There is way more money in academics
Straw man argument. Funny....You seem to forget to add the academic money and the athletic award given to many lax players male or female. If your going to push your agenda please cite all the facts. Don't just cherry pick the facts you like.
Keep looking through those rose colored glasses. Rainbows, unicorns and full rides are everywhere!!
If your kid could get into Stanford, Notre Dame, Northwestern, Vanderbilt, Princeton, Harvard, Yale, Cornell, Brown, Dartmouth, Penn, Duke, Navy, John's Hopkins, Georgetown, Army, Colgate, Davidson, Richmond, Lehigh, Berkeley, BC, William and Mary or other great academic institutions because they had talent at lacrosse AND worked hard in the classroom, would you think that was a good thing? What if your kid loved the sport and wanted a great education?? It isn't all about a full ride. It's about young women who have drive and passion, that work hard, learn teamwork and leadership, and go on to become well-rounded, well-educated leaders in our society. You can keep having disdain for others who are successful while they pass you and your kid by.
