If DD is 99 percentile smart, would playing SB help her get into an Ivy or a Stanford if she is an above average player.
I'm also wondering if playing SB might be a way for my DD to get her foot in the door at a selective school, InsidePitch. My young DD has a 4.0 avg, gets 99th percentile on the annual state tests and for some reason has had a desire to go to Yale since she was about 10. (I'd be fine seeing her go there or to many other schools.) However, she's currently a B level player, not A. I'm imagining that she'd have to get pretty darned good at SB, even with the brains. Just from what I've observed, a lot of girls playing softball are smart kids.
P.S. Did you notice that one of the NCFA showcases in PA was specifically for girls with high academic credentials? Has anyone had any experience with that showcase?
