Reply to "College Summer Leagues - Best and Not Best"

I played in 3 different summer leagues, and each had their own strengths and weaknesses. I was not lucky enough (eh good enough) to play in the Cape, so I experienced a lot of the 2nd (and eh third tier) summer leagues. What was not lacking was competition. I went to a northeast school so loved the opportunity to play against kids from the south.

I would urge anyone looking for a summer team to list out your priorities. If you want exposure and scouts, there are certain leagues you need to get into (and to do it early in the fall!) There are a lot of competitive leagues with great talent (and fun), but most do live on the financial edge which makes it for an interesting summer.
