I think I know the answer this question. My 09 son is being actively recruited by 6-7 colleges. Do these college coaches want to see newspaper clippings or weblinks of articles or boxscores highlighting his performance?

you might see some differences of opinions here but I would say that if the article is only about your son, use it if you see a need. If it's a box score or an article about his team, let Grandma and Grandpa enjoy it.
If the article features your son (he pitched 6+ innings, hit a homerun, or had multiple RBI's) then I would strongly recommend that YOUR SON send it to the various coaches. I would not just send box scores.
We did this for our son his senior year and it ultimaly led to a scholarship offer from a very good school that was across the country that had never seen him play.
