Tri State Tournament in New Jersey

[Ryan37416]

Im gonna be a senior next year in the fall and now that I am eligble to talk to coaches, I would like to know from anyone who was at this tournament last year how many coaches were there, and If they were mostly D1,2,or 3 schools. Ill be playing at the tournament this year and even though my state doesnt have any respect at all (Georgia) will I still be able to be noticed? I have the skills to play on a lower D1 team but would prefer to play D3 and see more playing time.

Let me know I would really appreciate it.

Also if your playing in it this year, tell me what team you will be with.

Do you remember if any good D3 school coaches were there or was it all just D1, and do the coaches try to stay low-key or do they want players coming up to them?

yeah i've been wondering this for a while...what is the deal with talking to coaches at camps? i'm going to a few this summer and i don't get what to do if i want to "talk" to a coach. is there time after games or something and am i just supposed to go up to him and be like hey i sent you a letter remember me?

Yea my team is going to this tourny also. My team is TSL and we are pretty good. We are from North Carolina so I was wondering if scouts would pay more attention to us becuase we arent from a hotbed so this would be one of there few chances to see us. At least thats how I look at it. Or at least that how i wish it was

I'm going with my summer team, Top Gun Littlenecks. However, we're freshmen and sophmores so we'll be playing in the U-17 division. We won the tournament last year so we've got some title defending to do. Also, I've been the past few years and it has some great competition so good luck to everyone going.

Later guys.

Hey Im on Tri-State. I am going to this tournament. I checked on the tri-state site and the tournament(Summer sizzle) site but they didn't have the list of coaches up yet. I didn't go last year because I didnt do Tri-state last year. I expect there to be coaches from some high ranking schools( Princeton, Penn State, Lehigh) there are also other D3 schools that will probably be there too. I think that you should get decent exposure. You have to try to be a standout on the field to get coaches looking at you. Good luck
