Nowhere to really ask this question so I'll try it here. Where do you all weigh in on two sport athletes? I know Boone's Connell plays at least two, cuz I saw him at the Classic Bball in Jonesborough last year. He does an excellent job of excelling in both. Do you feel one should just concentrate on one sport or multiple? If you believe one, then what age do you cut off other sports and narrow it down to one? Obviously it should be the kids choice, but just looking for opinions. Thanks in advance.

In my opinion, they should play as many as they want and can. Two seems to be the most that many can manage (given practice, studies, personal interest), but some play 3 (like Connell--he plays fb, bsktbl and bseball and excels in all). Football is the one that really can cut into other sports time---(if you really want to devote time to the weight room). My opinion is that the parents should build an expectation that the kid should not drop out of anything until after his Freshman year, maybe even Soph.year, until they can make the most intellegent choice.
