Find Out Where You stand
before you waste time chasing the wrong schools
The Grit Sports research playbook for high school baseball athletes who want to know which division and programs are right for them, so every move they make is pointed in the right direction
Most athletes aim too high or too low because they've never actually researched where they fit.
Many athletes chase the D1 dream because they believe it's the only or best path, unaware that D1 only takes the top 2% of high school baseball talent. This limited focus makes them short-change their potential and miss out on incredible programs that would be an ideal fit, both on the field and in the classroom.
The result? Wasted time, unanswered emails, and a recruiting process that stalls before it starts.
Knowing your realistic talent level before you contact coaches is the smartest move you can make.
