Join us on Tuesday, October 28 at 5 p.m. for an invaluable workshop for parents and students: Making College Affordable & Navigating the College Athlete Recruiting Process.

Hear from special guest Chris Gruber, Vice President and Dean of Admission & Financial Aid at Davidson College, along with SMR Athletic Director Jon Lombardo, as they share expert insights on financial aid, scholarships, and college recruiting for student-athletes.

We are also excited to welcome Coach Patrick Tracy as a featured speaker during the college-recruiting for student-athletes session. With more than 20 years of experience as a collegiate coach at schools such as Ohio State, Dartmouth, UMBC, High Point, and Washington College, Coach Tracy has guided student-athletes to success both on and off the field. Join us to glean valuable insight for families on navigating the recruiting process from start to finish, guided by over 20 years of NCAA experience. Coach Tracy has developed numerous All-Americans and professional players, but is most passionate about mentoring young people to grow as leaders, teammates, and students. Parents will gain valuable insight into how athletics can open doors in the college search and how character, hard work, and accountability play a central role in long-term success.
