He has decided on a school and has been offered a spot on the team for the 2019/2020 season.

We are excited, I can continue to live vicariously thru my son(I mean enjoy watching him play, ha, ha, ha).

Congratulations!

D3 hoops is a great experience - best of luck to your son-
Just because it�s d3 it�s still some great hoops with amazing kids and experiences

My daughter is playing D3 lacrosse

The great thing is they go to school and they already have a built in group of kids who are invested in their success and friendship. She loves her team and already recognized that she is working harder academically in-season (which is statistically true among student-athletes).

But it is true that parents pick up some slack at the D3 level.

You didn't work with a guy named Singer, did you?
