To the OP- it depends on the D3 program. Some are far more competitive than others. Also depends on your HS. Playing Varsity is one thing in a HS school with a grad class of 160, quite another in a school with a class of 800, and with a tradition of winning in that sport. I know a kid who has been on a varsity baseball team for all 4 years at his smaller private school. He likely wouldn’t make even a JV team at one of the big public 4A schools, and certainly wouldn’t make varsity.

It doesn’t hurt to try and walk on. If you are better than the recruited players then you will get a chance sooner or later.
