Julian Jenkins from the National Collegiate Scouting Association will be presenting at this seminar. The seminar will begin at 7 pm and be held in the old Davis high school gym. This presentation should last approximately one hour. The seminar will cover the following points of interest: 1) As a high school student-athlete, how do I get recruited to play sports in college? 2) NCAA Eligibility Center- What does it take academically to be eligible for recruitment. 3) Be Realistic: Not everyone is a Division 1 level athlete. 4) Your coach alone is not responsible for getting you a scholarship! 5) Strategies on how to maximize an athlete's recruiting potential.
