We have a player on our 18U team that has matured late and would be a very solid D1 recruit but is getting a late start at that level (and as a team we've placed most of our girls in below-D1 the past few years anyway so that's an issue too). She's a SS/C.
We'd welcome any advice. Is trying to find a D1 late opening (likely with limited or no money) worthwhile or should she try to land at a Juco with a good D1 pipeline? We are in the midwest/Chicago area -- are there any Jucos that stand out locally (the ones we know don't really fit that critera)? If she needs to go out of the midwest, what's a good plan to get seen by Jucos unlikely to see her in midwest exposure this fall? Are top tier Jucos already full-up?
Any help appreciated...really want to help this girl out, she's a player and a good kid.
