[Adrenaline]

[Smitty]

Johnny G took an official to Yale a few weeks ago. I'm feeling lucky.

[Gil-Galad]

Ross have you decided upon any college yet?

[Ecliptica]

Bombaugh, Sam - Falmouth MA - Throws - Louisville


Top program in the country for throws. Coach Cowper is one of the absolute best coaches around, Sam should do really well there. Great job.

Paco, I love that you spelled your own school wrong. It's a very Paco thing to do.

last time I checked Colby was d3? could be wrong though.

[McRoss]

down to three ;) all very far away

[pacs802]

They're D1 in skiing only (both alpine and nordic), Bates, Middlebury and Williams are also D3 schools that are D1 in skiing. D3 skiing is kind of a joke, so its not really a big deal.

Why is the title of this thread "EA/ED College Commitments Class of '14"? Shouldn't it be Class of '10? The class of 2014 are in eighth grade right now.

Anyways, according to a reliable source I heard Jeff Bush will be attending Brown next fall;)

[RICamel]

Three track athletes from Barrington (RI) High School have made commitments to college: Brian McLaughlin, distance, is heading to Tufts University; Sarah Barry, mid-distance & XC, is bound for Yale; and Remy Steele, hammer and field events, Cornell

Kids could have also taken a PG year this year, meaning they were '09 HS graduates, but are applying/committing to college this year (for '14 graduation).

There's another kid from the Hanover xc crew who has chosen/gotten in to a school.

Whoops...my bad. :o

[TrojanTiger98]

What about McGowan? Has he decided on any particular school?

[burnstein]

what about Ben Perron of St. Johns?

[XC Watcher]

Do any of these kids go to "average" schools or are they all going to Ivy League and expensive schools?
I don't think ALL cross country kids are 4.0 students and their parents are very wealthy.
Let's hear from the kids that have committed to Bridgewater, Westfield State and UMassDart.

[bcal92]

People apply to the most competitive schools early decision or early action.

State schools have rolling admissions or later application deadlines.

The Early Decision/Early Action applications will also tend to be to wealthier applicants who can afford to take the aid package that comes from the college they get into.

Jared Reddy- UMass Amherst

Jared Reddy- UMass Amherst

Thats not 100% yet. Still waiting on official visit in January. I know the Globe reported this in the All-Scholastic section on Sunday but I think they mis-read his info sheet.

sukeforth - pretty much committed to umass dartmouth. looking forward to the teachings of the great middle distance coach steve gardiner.

are all these kids getting huge scholarships to these schools, cause i dont know anyone who can afford brown, or even the school books for it.

[mcrun33]

Does that mean he's doing a PG year at Facebook, and then onto Dartmouth?

You're in big trouble if you can't even afford the books... There are plenty of people out there, though, who can afford tuition at private schools, otherwise they wouldn't be charging it. (not that this is the place to be discussing people's personal finances)

I go to a D2 school...I would have paid $1,100 for a year for books (though getting them online helps) This is out of my pocket that i've gained through working basically minimum wage. Don't think books are only expensive at D1/Ivy league schools:rolleyes:

Plus my brother goes to an Ivy league school. Going to an Ivy is not that much of a burden as its cracked up to be, even if it and my tuition will empty my parent's bank accounts...Hell even Harvard is offering free tuition to kids if their family is really financially deficient.

As to the fact that only prestigous schools are mention here. This is false. Tons of kids stay local at UML or another "tier 2" local school. Also better kids in hs will attract attention from noticable schools with budgets to recuit. Smaller schools without a budget dont necessarily get kids to recruit. Finally, if kids are interested in track and post on these boards, they are more likely "good"....so they'll get more interest. Certainly correlation does not mean causation though.

Yale is free if your parents make less than $100,000 a year and pretty cheap even if they make up to 200/250k a year. Harvard and Princeton are pretty much the same, and most other Ivies have very good financial aid packages as well.

State XC Champion Patrick McGowan of Mansfield and 3rd place Jared Reddy of Methuen have both verbally committed to UMASS. Coach O"Brien made them a great offer. The runner-up, Anthony Taylor of Arlington might also be in the mix.

If they grab Taylor, thats an awesome job by UMASS getting 1-2-3 from the state championship @ Northfield.

EDIT: see the MVC thread for a statement from Methuen HS and Jared

UMass Amherst, I'm assuming?

[mcrun33]

UMass Amherst, I'm assuming?

Yes- the UMass Boston package wasn't quite enough.

[300kicks]

THE University of Massachusetts:cool: :D

And Yes ATaylor would be the capper, a powerful trioka of frosh:)

[clifbar]

Yes- the UMass Boston package wasn't quite enough.
UMass Lowell wouldn't have been a huge surprise. They've pulled together a pretty solid team over the last few years.

[mcrun33]

UMass Lowell wouldn't have been a huge surprise. They've pulled together a pretty solid team over the last few years.

Who refers to UMass-Lowell as "UMASS" though? Anyone who leaves off the city is referring to Amherst, unless the context is specific, like if this was an NE-10 thread.

[TedB]

I think the mention of Coach O'Brien would have been enough to convince knowledgeable fans as to which campus was being referenced. :rolleyes:

Well as a parent of a freshman, I'm not super knowledgeable about college XC coaches. Geez...what was I thinking asking that question? I mean...who doesn't know Coach O'Brien of UMass Amherst? Thank goodness there's all-knowing people such as yourselves to make up for my lack of knowledge. :rolleyes:

All I was suggesting was that knowledgeable fans would know of the 43-year career as xc/track coach at the state's flagship university. After all he was coaching at UMass when most of us went to school. ;)

i heard he had a blood infection during xc, that's why he didn't do so hot, and he took the winter off to get back to 100%. i can't help you with the college choice though
