My daughter is a senior and in the middle of the recruiting process for basketball and volleyball. She is 6'2", which grabs coaches' attention right away, but what next? I was wondering what other parents are doing to help with the process of getting their child recruited. What have you found to be successful?

Wow. Your daughter sounds awesome! I don't really know anything about athletic scholarships. I do however have a best friend who's sister was a college baskeball player. I will get information from her and let you know. I also know that after her sister graduated from college, she married her coach and had twins! Funny huh?

LOL! DD always seems to date boys that are shorter than her. I keep telling her that I want you to find a nice TALL basketball to date in hopes they will eventually get married and grow me up a basketball team! Haha! Thanks for your compliments girlgonefishing. It will be difficult when DD moves away for college. I am certain I will go through withdrawals not being able to watch every game.
