So your DD is going to pick up the phone and call a college coach... What should she say?

Before read the media guide on the team’s website.

Not sure what you mean by "media guide". Are you just talking about the info about their school, like the brochure about it? As far as the school, it's basically "home" to her. She's been going there since she was 6. Dance competitions, recitals, her older brother's band competitions and last year most of their home games. She knows the whole campus and knows her desired major as well as her post grad, which they have a great program for.

On their softball page there will be a media guide or brochure about the softball team. It’s different from the school brochure. This will have history of the program and records.

Sounds like shes already pretty familiar with it. Something might catch her interest that’ll show the coach how serious she is about wanting to play there.

Sounds like she’s really got it together. Both schools will be lucky to have her. She just needs too decide if D1 is for her. There’s huge rewards and she can probably still do her major. Harder to get playing time and the travel schedule at D1 is far more rigorous. Some kids love it, others would rather have more of the traditional student experience. As long as she’s the one making the choice it’ll work out.
