I touched on this in another thread. The recruits necessary to take the next step to becoming a top 7 or 8 program year in year out will have to be at a higher level, no way around it. We need to pull from the top 3 in NJ, and more from eastern PA, as well as anyone who is elite in NY, DE, MD. I think we have done very well considering the things holding us back.
Now with the RAC atmosphere, roughly 2,500 fans per match and top 5 attendance, the SKWC getting better thanks to donor support, and the new practice facility which is on par with just about anyone, the obstacles are disappearing fast. I think to this point, the practice facility was a little far off to really matter to recruits, but it should matter for the upcoming class, as they will really be using it for their time here.
