high school-to-college thread, redux

Post by grapesmoker »

I'm just curious where the high school talent is going next year. Maybe we could use this thread to link players with teams or something. If anyone is going to Brown, they can contact me at jerry_v at brown dot edu.

I (Chris Ray, Richard Montgomery High School) will be going to Arizona State next year. They don't currently have a team, so it seems like I'll unfortunately have to start one up. If anyone has any advice/contacts/words of despair, please email me at the address in my profile.

Does anybody know if Dwight Kidder's contact list is being updated for 2006?

As far as I know, he's always in the process of updating / maintaining it.

I've received an email about the list; it's up and running.

Edited to add a random note: Colleen, if you're reading this, are any of the Chicago-bound Auburnites planning on playing?

I've heard there are some North Carolina players coming to UNC next year, although I don't know if any post here. If so, feel free to contact me/pass my e-mail along with any questions about our team (sgarnett at email dot unc dot edu).

I should ask you... have you joined the NCATA listserver?

To answer your question, as I know it from Raleigh Charter (and Eric can verify):
UNC gets Will Schultz.
Duke gets Chris Hoersting and Andrew Zonderman.

I don't know if you're back in Michigan, but if you are in North Carolina and can help out at the NSC, let me know soon. Invitation extended to all UNC members.

Unfortunately I can't help out, as I am back in Michigan, and I haven't joined the listserver yet.

This is the place to go to find out about that.

I will be attending the University of Oklahoma, which has a pretty good team from what I gathered on their website. I've already filled out the contact list. Anyone else on here joining me there?
