On behalf of US Lacrosse, it is my sincere pleasure to introduce you to our college recruiting handbook, “So... You want to play lacrosse in college?” In recent years, college recruiters have accelerated the timeline and created recruiting formulas that are unique to them. The direction of the recruiting process has led to confusion by some, frustration to others and leaves everyone guessing. The intent of this handbook is to present hard facts, dispel the myths, and to promote the essentials.

It is important for recruits and their families to understand that you are in charge and it is up to you to find the right fit academically, athletically, socially, and geographically. See the BIG PICTURE! If lacrosse is taken out of the equation; would this be the right school for you?

The handbook contains a baseline of facts that all colleges must adhere to and every recruit should know. The handbook addresses practices that are believed to be true, but are outside the guidelines of college recruiting. Finally, the handbook emphasizes two constants that every coach looks for in her recruits. Simply stated, coaches are looking for young women of exemplary character and a strong academic profile.

I believe you will find this information invaluable as a starting point and a reference source throughout your process. Please feel free to offer any comments, as we will continue to update the text to keep current with the times.

Sincerely,

Nancy Haws, Coaches Subcommittee Chair US Lacrosse, Women’s Game

CHAPTER 1: Grades and Character

Taking that next step after high school is a lot of work, but it can extremely rewarding and fulfilling. Before the college search begins, there are important questions that you need to be prepared to answer…. 1) How important is the sport to you? • What kind of time commitment do you want to play lacrosse? (DI, DII, DIII, WCLA, etc.) • How will the sport impact your goals for college and beyond? • What type of player personality do I have? i. What type of impact will I make? ii. Am I willing to wait to play? iii. What role am I willing to play?

2) What are your grades like? • How hard do you work in school? • What did you get on your SAT/ACT’s? • What kind of classes are you taking?

There are also a few questions the student athlete should ask herself…. 1) What are my goals for my college lacrosse experience? 2) What are my goals for my college education? 3) What are my goals for life after college?

For the college bound athlete, it is imperative that you focus on your academics as well as your athletics. • Plan your course load early! Grades need to be maintained all throughout high school. • Transcripts need to be more transparent ahead of time.

CHAPTER 2: Inside The Numbers - 2013

Number of collegiate lacrosse programs in existence:

DI DII DIII WCLA NAIA NJCAA Women’s Game 107 77 243 230 9 17

By the #’s - Women’s Game • High school women’s lacrosse players: 112,865 • Average roster size: 27 • NCAA – mandated maximum number of scholarships per program (over four years): 12 at D I, 9.9 at DII • Average scholarships per program per year: 3 • Average players per recruiting class: 9 • Average estimated scholarships: 33 percent • Fully funded programs: 50 • Total scholarships available: 780 • Players receiving some scholarship over four years: 2,363 • Odds of any high school female landing any Division I scholarship: 2 percent Sources: NCAA, USL data from 2011-12 and estimated projections based on Lacrosse Magazine research. Just some of the facts…. • For Division I schools, more than 110,000 high school players compete for about 700 spots each year. Many players and parents operate under the misconception that both opportunity in the Division I level and athletic scholarships are readily available. Less than half of the players Division I or Division II receive any athletic scholarship money in their first year, and the concept of a “full ride” has all but vanished with very few exceptions.

• The NCAA allows each Division I lacrosse program 12 scholarships to be split among the entire team in one year. In Division II, there is the maximum number of 9.9 scholarships to be used by a program. However, many schools do not award the full allotment of athletic scholarships to a program, either because of league or institutional rules that don’t allow athletic scholarships (ex. The Ivy League), or a choice to use available institutional funds elsewhere.

• How scholarship money is used depends on the coach’s philosophy and the positional needs of the program each year. In a recruiting class of , some coaches may offer scholarship to four of those players and not to the remaining five, while other coaches may offer small amounts of scholarship to all nine players. There is no set designation of how scholarship must be given so asking the coach their philosophy is essential. And a reminder, DIII scholarships are based on academic merit and financial need, and no athletic scholarships are available.

• The opportunity to “walk-on” to a team at the Division I level varies greatly by program. Some coaches will honor recruits for spots on their roster before they will accept walk-on players, while other coaches will present equal opportunity to try-out for the team during the first week of school. You need to discuss all the options with each prospective school.

CHAPTER 3: Player/College Checklist

Below is a list of categories and questions that can help the players and parents review and determine what program is best for the future of their daughter when comparing colleges as they narrow down their selection….

CATEGORY School 1 School 2 Academic Is the school a fully accredited, highly-rated institution? Does the school have a good reputation academically? Does the school offer majors of interest to me?

CHAPTER 4: Financial Aid vs. Scholarships

Financial Aid Paying for college can be an overwhelming process for parents and student athletes alike. You should weigh all the options that are available to you. Look for scholarship opportunities in your local area, but also ask college recruiters about the opportunities for financial aid and athletic scholarships. Before you start weighing your options, sit down with your parents, coach or guidance counselor to go over all preliminary steps associated with paying for college.

The first step is to complete the Free Application for Student Aid, commonly referred to as, the FAFSA. Completing the FAFSA will allow you to see which federal grants and assistance programs you are eligible. This will also allow you to see what you will be able to borrow through federal loans programs like Stafford, Perkins and PLUS loans and what private lenders may be able to offer.

Consult your parents, guidance counselor, coach and financial advisor to what might be the best option for you.

Scholarships When beginning your college search, you should also investigate what scholarships are available to you from local and national organizations. While this can be a painstaking initiative, it will ultimately lower the amount of student debt that you can accumulate through college. There are scholarships for everything, so don’t be reluctant to start the search regardless of grades. If you completed countless hours of community service or are focused on becoming an actor, doctor or marine biologist, there is probably a scholarship out there for you.

There are large misconceptions about scholarships when it comes to college lacrosse. The full-scholarship is rare in the sport, but partial scholarships or need-based aid are more commonplace. There are exceptions to NCAA scholarship limits as schools like Army, Navy, Air Force, Merchant Marine Academy and Coast Guard Academy are exempt from limits as every student and student-athlete receives a full scholarship. When you start to investigate schools, ask coaches what options are available to lacrosse players. Every school is different, so be sure to know all the rules and regulations when it comes to recruiting.
