Do some research . look at the rosters and at the Commitments . You will see players down to the c team going to good d2 schools. My daughters year has 4 teams and you’ll see a lot of girls going d3 on the 4th team and the still have a year to go.
The C team is alive and well with politics. The 1 going D1 is a political connection and if you are in the right crowd on that team they helped you out. I have no problem with playing D2 or D3 but I am not sure kids play for 5 years hoping for D2. Finally, 5 calls from D1 teams on Sept 1, doubt that, most of B girls got no calls. And many B girls got no help with recruiting.
