There are athletic recruitment forms on the web sites. You can get coaches' contact information from the web sites also and ask to schedule an appointment with a coach when you visit. They may ask for game tapes, coach's references, etc.
If you did not play at the HS level, you should look into how competitive it is to be a member of the sports team of interest. Ask the coach about it. I believe all the basketball players played varsity in HS, and were also the best players on their HS teams. The basketball commitment can be daunting, esp if you have no experience with things like double sessions (practice at 7AM and 5PM), practice drills, game travel schedules during 2 terms, etc.
Currently the Womens basketball team has about half the roster of the Men due to coaching changes and players deciding not to continue for whatever reasons, so the odds are better.
