.... it would seem as though getting athletes with the grades to go to BC would be a further challenge.
Five years ago I had conversations with the parents of BC players about high school grades. I was surprised how low some of the high school gpa's of then current BC players were.
I assure you that is not the case with my son. Further, one of the other recruits in this class appears to be on track to be class valedictorian at a prestigious private school not far from where I live. My son's academic record was an important factor early on in their conversations.
There are thirty-five players on the team, not two. It's also possible they may have changed their approach which would cover players from five to eight years ago. I was told there were players with 2.3 high school gpa's on the team.
