Lakeland University Women's Soccer Recruiting

Start with Alexander Pagonis, the head coach. Lakeland University lists a one person women's soccer staff, so every recruit email lands with the head coach directly and there is no coordinator filtering the inbox.

As general context, NCAA Division III schools do not award athletic scholarships. Aid at D3 schools comes through academic merit and need based packages, and D3 coaches often recruit later in the cycle than D1 programs. Lakeland University ranks in the lower part of its division by Massey rank, so a prepared recruit who follows up is more likely to get a direct look than at a top ranked program.

Lakeland University is a private small school on a rural campus with about 1,212 undergraduates. On a campus this size the women's soccer staff usually knows the admissions office well, so academic fit comes up early in the conversation. The acceptance rate is 87 percent, so include your grades and any test scores in the first message.
