Nice job with your list. I disagree with two of them
"Most of the girls who commit in the first 2 or 3 weeks of September are either 1) legacies 2) aren't getting any athletic $$ or 3) Both. Don't let seeing who else is committing impact you too much. (The exception is goalies-- you need to monitor every commit since there are so few spots available)."
Why I disagree:
Most of the girls committing in the first couple of weeks are the top players in the country who are in some cases put on a strict timeline to commit.
"During club games, coaches are watching more attitude and composure than technical skills. They can tell if you can play in 5 minutes, they need to watch you 5 times to see if you are someone they want on their team."
Why I disagree:
Coaches are looking for speed, speed, speed, athleticsm, toughness. Combine the speed with size and great stick skills you are going to get recruited. Yes, attitude is extremely important and a bad attitude will get you eliminated quickly.
