Saint Francis University Men's Soccer Recruiting

Start with Shelby Edwards, the head coach. The men's staff is small, with 2 assistant coaches alongside the head coach, so the head coach almost certainly reads recruiting mail personally. Copy the assistants so the whole staff sees the same message.

As general context, NCAA Division I is the highest level of college soccer. D1 programs may offer athletic scholarships, and most D1 rosters are largely settled a year or more before a recruiting class enrolls. Saint Francis 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.

Saint Francis University is a private small school on a rural campus with about 1,557 undergraduates. On a campus this size the men's soccer staff usually knows the admissions office well, so academic fit comes up early in the conversation. The acceptance rate is 80 percent, and the middle SAT range is 1050 to 1230, so include your grades and any test scores in the first message.
