    9/30 How Recruiting Works with Dickinson's Webster, Amherst's Woods

    IL's Dan Kaplan continues the series of "How Recruiting Works" with a DIII twist.  He welcomes Dickinson coach Dave Webster and Amherst coach Sean Woods to answer a bevy of recruiting-related questions. While a lot of the blueprint for most of DIII is pretty similar, the subtle manipulations by staff and program make all the difference. In addition to valuable knowledge about the process, this episode also has packed in plenty of advice about how recruits should carry themselves as a means of showing off the tangibles and intangibles that it takes to go from a prospect to a committed player.

    9/27 How Recruiting Works with Delaware's Ben DeLuca

    Around this time every year, dozens of parents of high school prospects ask IL's Terry Foy some version of the question, "How does recruiting work?" In an effort to round out that answer, he's interviewing a series of DI men's lacrosse coaches about their process, concluding this year's series with Delaware coach Ben DeLuca. The Blue Hens sit at the intersection of several aspects of college athletics — geographically (north/south), academically (most selective/most prestigious), competitively (perennial tournament contender/perennial title contender) and, most pertinently as they transition from FCS to FBS football, high-major vs. low-major. It all manifests in how DeLuca builds out Delaware's roster, and he discusses how that informs his evaluation and recruiting strategies.

    More than 200 players in the Class of 2026 have announced their commitment, including more than 100 since IL's Dan Kaplan and Terry Foy last recorded. In light of that, the Top 10 Class Rankings have started to take form, most notably Duke's No. 2 group, which rocketed up the charts with four huge commitments on Sept. 16.

    9/23 How Recruiting Works with Saint Joseph's Taylor Wray

    Around this time every year, dozens of parents of high school prospects ask IL's Terry Foy some version of the question, "How does recruiting work?" In an effort to round out that answer, he's interviewing a series of DI men's lacrosse coaches about their process, continuing with Saint Joseph's coach Taylor Wray. Entering his 14th season at the Hawks' helm, Wray describes how his path from Edmonton to Duke informs how he evaluates and recruits, and explains how St. Joe's has incrementally increased its investment in men's lacrosse since he arrived, culminating in receiving its full scholarship allotment six years ago (and how that has corresponded with the program's cresting).

    9/20 How Recruiting Works with Sacred Heart's Jon Basti

    Around this time every year, dozens of parents of high school prospects ask IL's Terry Foy some version of the question, "How does recruiting work?" In an effort to round out that answer, he's interviewing a series of DI men's lacrosse coaches about their process, continuing with Sacred Heart coach Jon Basti. Coming off a MAAC Championship and an NCAA Tournament appearance, Basti discusses the sweetest sandwich he's had recently before venturing into how assistant coach Chris Doctor has helped him slow the Pioneers' process down, how they try to find athletes that want to be at their institution and how they define the program's identity.
