mom. you probably already know this if you’re a lax parent - but the recruiting timetable is earlier for lax than most sports. In the NESCAC, while nothing is official until the ED decision date, there is a lot of interaction between a player’s HS/Club coach and the college coach prior to that time.

Your son’s HS coach is a valuable ally here. The Tufts lax coach (Daye) was interviewed and said “we will not recruit a guy until we’ve talked to their head high school coach…predicting outcomes for 16 and 17 year old boys is an inexact science at best”

Good luck - stay in touch
