As the parent of a son who thinks he wants to play basketball in college, this book was insightful and extremely helpful! We are already experiencing first hand how competitive high school sports are, and since academics are also important to us, this book gives great advice about how to strike the right balance for yourchild. Looking ahead at the college admissions process, I had the feeling of "not knowing what to do" , but after reading this book, I feel like we have process and a path to follow. Reading the book feels like talking to an experienced, trusted friend --- the tone is friendly, the examples feel genuine, and the advice is very practical. We will definitely be using this book as we approach the college process! Both parents and their college-bound child should read this indispensable guide. We hope that we can help our son win in the game of college sports recruiting........Put Me In Coach!

Ms. Richter gives much insight into determining if, and where your high school athlete should play sports in college. She helps navigate the muddy waters of what criteria you and your student athlete should consider (athletics, academics, social life) as you look at colleges, and then helps you figure out how to actually get there! I've recommended this to everyone I know with a high school athlete, as well as a college counselor friend of mine. I think Ms. Richter has done a great service to high school athletes and their parents by writing this easy to understand book!
