Spartanburg Methodist College Men's Soccer Recruiting

Start with Doug Smith, the head coach. The men's staff is small, with one assistant coach alongside the head coach, so the head coach almost certainly reads recruiting mail personally. Copy the assistant so the whole staff sees the same message.

As general context, NAIA programs may offer athletic scholarships and follow more flexible recruiting contact rules than the NCAA, so coaches can speak with recruits earlier and more directly. Spartanburg Methodist College 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.

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.
