Still some very good players out there. College is in season. But there is a lot of prospect day upcoming, across D1 D2 and D3 over the coming weekends. For example Penn St and Fairfield have upcoming days. And kids will commit. However, my view is it won’t start to pick up until summer.

Re: Boys 2025-11th Grade Fall 2023/Summer 2024 Team BOTC #432996 A Anonymous Unregistered Anonymous Unregistered A I believe men’s D-1 lacrosse is in very big trouble if the NCAA allows unionized players. All the money will go to basketball and football and the rest will go to women’s sports due to title 9.

But all the 25s are literally down to 3 or 4 summer events. And some these events fall way short of expectations in terms of coaches attendance.

They did lose to the 2nd Express team though at that same event.

One more summer of playing to be seen (or help your buddies who haven't committed yet). ABCDF, rankings...none of it matters. On to the next.

Fact is that commits are harder to come by with so many kids from so many states playing. Point is, it’s time to keep every option open and start looking for options that were not considered 6 months ago.

You want a trophy too! I'm sorry your son probably hates playing lacrosse now because of how you try to live through him. I hope I'm wrong and he still loves the game and finds a great place to continue his academic and athletic career. Away from you.

Yes, every school, at every level has kids from all over the country. And now coaches are in season so it’s all about the summer.

Whatever you spend on club lacrosse you will NEVER recoup in scholarship money. Don’t fully agree. Yes, there are schools that give way more academic money vs athletic. And we all obviously know no athletic money in D3. However, lax can help with admissions for D3. And there is a lot of athletic scholarship opportunities in D1 and D2.
