What are the test score minimums for Headfirst?  What if grades are high from an academically well known public high school, but test scores are mediocre?  

If you called HF they'll give you a better idea.  Look at the list of colleges attending and look up their middle 50% ACT scores, the lower number is a target some of the HC's will use, there are plenty of exceptions:

  • 26 used to be a min. for Duke (per HC Pollard) 
  • Players with 27's have been recruited by a few Ivy's (Academic Index used)
  • Go to PG website and look up college commitments; look at colleges your son may be interested in; look up a few players committed to the college you may see their ACT or SAT scores posted 
  • PG:  https://www.perfectgame.org/Co...legeCommitments.aspx 

One 2019 RHP was offered from a power 5 conference (higher academic). Has sights set on one particular Ivy who is looking for a 30 ACT, 3.65 GPA and he's in. His GPA should be there with no problem; I think his first ACT was 28.

#1 Assistant Coach posited the "Rule of 120" -- take the RHP's top velocity, add his ACT score, and if it equals 120 or higher he's in good shape at an Ivy.  

Unless he throws 100 and has a 20 ACT.....lol
