I GOT A SCHOLARSHIP!!! November 22, 2002 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I just received a college scholarship to play baseball at a Division I school and I owe it all to this book. It took me through the whole sports recruiting and college application process step-by-step. If it weren't for what I learned in this book, I never would have written to coaches and told them I wanted to play for their teams (I thought they'd come to me!); I never would have known that spring-sport athletes have to contact coaches in their junior (not senior) season; and I sure wouldn't have understood all the dos and don'ts of the NCAA regulations. I haven't even begun my senior year season yet and I'm already signed up to play in college! Thank you to the authors for helping me achieve my dream of playing college ball.
