Old School Mentality

The biggest mistake you daughter could make would be to commit to play lacrosse for KT. The sport your daughter loves and has spent countless hours perfecting will turn into a sport your daughter hates in little over a year. Current starters that should have transferred out at the end of last year are now just playing out the season hoping that it would end tomorrow. This is how it will go for most of the freshman class if you decide to stay with Colgate and KT. Freshman year your daughter will be put on a pedestal and praised as the saviors of the program. Fall ball will come around and all of the new players will get a majority of the playing time with praise and admiration. The parents and players will be happy. This for most will be the last time they will say that. From that point on if your daughter is producing on the field, you will have at least one good season until your daughter has an injury. Kids know this and play hurt with said injury not disclosing it. While this is going on KT is busy trying to flush the toilet on the sophomores and upper-class to see who she can get to quit so she has more $ to offer her next class coming in. Year two for your daughter the whole cycle starts all over. New freshman will get all of the playing time and the shining stars will be forced into the lineup. KT will stick with this lineup to prove to everyone what a great recruiter she is. If your daughter was a producer as a freshman and remains a starter the competition will now put their best defender on her and shut her down. KT is not smart enough to as a coach to recognize this and will do absolutely nothing to help get your daughter open. She will stay with her magnificent offense of pass the ball around for 70 seconds with each player trying to go 1v1. When that doesn't work a desperation shot is taken as the shot clock expires, essentially an unrecorded turnover. 2024 1-10 (maybe 1 more win in their future) 2023 4-11 2022 6-12 2021 5-6 2020 3-4 (covid) Zero coaching, horrible winning percentage, only 2 four-year recruits of hers graduating. By the time your daughter reaches her junior and senior year you will realize she is stuck at Colgate playing for KT miserable and hating her decision to play there. Don't take my word for it have your daughter ask juniors and seniors. decommit while you can! Freshman athletes hit the transfer portal and run as fast as you can. Juniors and seniors get the AD on speed dial and start campaigning to have KT fired. don't get trapped like many have. Colgate is a wonderful school that your daughter will not want to leave after you finish your sophomore year. DON'T GET STUCK IN THE CESSPOOL THAT KT HAS CREATED!
