I’m not so sure that “being in our backyard” is quite the advantage that it used to be. Speaking from experience, it may even be a disincentive.
Today’s teens want to experience truly being on their own. They know no boundaries in their pursuit of colleges. Ideally though, they prefer being far enough away from home to exert their independence but close enough to stay in touch with family and friends. That is probably why we do well in New Jersey and the Philadelphia region in many sports.
Just my opinion. Merry Christmas everyone!!
