Re: Ways to get recruited
1. jump high, get your name on the Track & Field News PV list for prep vaulters.
2. compete in summer track, it shows you are dedicated
3. send video & call the schools you are interested in
4. network, go to the college meets and introduce yourself.

Make good grades and do well on SAT ACT
jump high
Fill out on line questionnaires
Send resume/video to coaches
Understand there are a limited amount of scholarships
