I’m a member of my HS W BB & Volleyball varsity for both 9th & 10th grade and all league BB as a 9th grader. Both of the teams were league champs and made it to the CIF semi’s. My overall GPA is 3.85 at a very competitive private HS in LA area. I am investigating Amherst,Bowdoin,Wellesley, Brown, Yale and Princeton because of my interest in Creative writing and Fine Art. I do not have the time for club sports because of heavy classwork assignments and almost daily practices for the 2 teams. My coaches feel I can easily play in D3 and perhaps Ivy. How should I proceed with the coaches at these top schools and does playing 2 sports hurt or help?

Any response you might care to give would be greatly appreciated.
