My step daughter in HS did ballet, soccer, XC, and Lacrosse... obviously she is VERY athletic and maybe it is a girl thing but we heard it was super easy to get Lacrosse scholarships for a young lady. Again point is moot because she dropped sports (except for running on her own) to spend all her time on studies.
