The 14u college prospect thread brought this subject up-
When my DD was playing 14u, her head coach (former D1 MAC player) told me which players she thought were D1 material and which girls were D3 and which girls would probably quit within 2 years. She was dead on with her predictions 4 years later.
My point is, even though it is ludicrous to offer GIRLS at 14u, coaches have a pretty good idea-even at that age-who is D1 material and who is not. Thoughts?
