Not being the parent of an elite level player I have a few questions
1. What percentage of elite level players make it to D1 programs?
2. What percentage of elite players switch teams to a perceived better team when they are not getting playing time.
3. What percentage of elite level players quit lacrosse because they either burn out or feel that they are not good enough to play at such a high level and are not willing to drop down and play at an AAA or AA level.
