College Athletics: How to Get There and What to Expect

There are many mysteries surrounding college athletics. How good do your grades need to be to get looked at by college coaches? What should my stats look like to be recruited? What are the differences between divisions? From starting the recruiting process to getting there and trying to figure out how to balance sports, academics, other extracurriculars, and a social life, the whole process of college athletics is undeniably daunting. I will address these topics as well as touch on my experience and what I learned from playing a college sport. 

My name is Audrey Kaus and I’m 22 years old. I graduated early from the University of Chicago in March of 2022 with a double major in Business-Economics and Spanish, while playing on the varsity women’s lacrosse team for four years and being captain for two. I went to LFHS and graduated in 2018, while there I played varsity basketball and varsity lacrosse for four years and was in leadership positions for both teams. I currently live in NYC and work for JP Morgan.
