kwalker203,

In almost all cases, D3 coaches will try to get the best athlete they can get through Admissions. If your son meets the college’s academic requirements, they will recruit him for D3. Can we assume he is a rising senior? If so, this summer will be the key recruiting time frame for D3 in any sport. They want his transcripts and SAT scores to determine his academic fit with the coach acting as a proxy. A good coach will tell you how that “Admissions pre-read” progresses and the outcome. In addition, I’d suggest you review these documents (URL below) to become more familiar with the recruiting language and timeframes. If you haven’t already, you may want to check out the NCAA Clearinghouse to make sure you have everything.

These are very general D3 recruiting items. I’ll defer to others with regard to lacrosse specifics. Good luck.
