It’s about recruiting.
I was talked by to another club lacrosse parent about the colleges his 2019 daughter was looking at this past summer. My daughter is a 2022.
I asked him about “ABC College” and he said that his daughter didn’t fit “the profile”. The profile was that this school liked taller girls.
Do colleges/universities have unsaid physical profiles for their teams?
Ever since I have always noticed the height of the players and most rosters don’t carry a majority of one height over another. What are some of the other physical traits that schools may look at in a player?


Hight has nothing to do with it. Some parents Don't get it.

Yes, "The Profile" at the top programs is: you have to be really good.

When you drop to the next tier the coaches take what they can get and for the most part they do not get the best players.
