Our Skyline Coaching Staff will work very hard with each family to find a college for any player who wishes to play basketball at the next level.  Please let us know if this is your families intention.  College coaches can not initiate contact with any player until after their Sophomore year in June but players and their families can initiate contact with colleges of their choice that they are pursuing.  The recruiting process requires that families are diligent toward communicating with colleges they are interested in attending.
