I have practically no awards or extracurriculars. What do I do?

You try to be the best athlete you possibly can be and look at highly selective D3 colleges (such as Nescac: Middlebury, Williams…) to see how you compare to their players. You have till Spring junior year, at which point you should have athletic stats strong enough in relation to your teams of interest and would contact the assistant coaches with an academic and athletic presentation&video. Note that you would only get need based aid (ie if your family makes more than 250k expect to pay full price generally). D3 teams may have an excellent level and be very competitive but you’re a student first and would not receive and athletic scholarship.
Being recruited is a “hook” meaning you have an advantage in admission if the coach supports tour application.
