Report on sons class - five years later

Thanks for sharing. I am pleased read about their post baseball success. That seems like a lot of talented players, how did they do during college?

Goosegg,

Very cool, good idea for a thread.   Our son's graduated the same year from different Ivys.  Certainly their respective alumni network's are strong, and I think it may be even stronger across schools in the same conference.  I got to spend a lot of time with my son's former teammates at his recent wedding and on the golf course.   The run down is similar, but a little different.  None of my son's classmates are in baseball and most are in investment banking with some entrepeneurs, family businesses and startups.  One of my son's teammates mentioned to me that he had been living in NYC with two roommates in a large SOHO apartment/condo.   One roommate was from P and the other from Y graduating the same year and both played baseball.  So these guys that played against each other in the Ivy League had stayed in touch...smart business!  Son's class was made up of business guys with my son being the only engineer.  

"That seems like a lot of talented players, how did they do during college."

Academically, two received special academic recognition (high honors, honors, etc.). (Also, all but the junior FA graduated in four years.) The rest were middle of the class type graduates. There was no shortage of job interviews or offers - employers seek out these guys/women who can juggle multiple priorities with a degree of success at each.

Baseball wise, there were ups and downs for all but the junior FA (who had an amazing career).  The walk-on had extremely limited playing time (but practiced like the rest); the rest all contributed and had chances to shine. 

The team was not very competitive most of the time and won league only once during his four years.

Fenway, to your point of cross networks, one of S's groomsmen in his upcoming wedding will be a Yale player he struck out many times - he really met him after retiring and beginning real world work.
