[QUOTE="Illinimobile, post: 1296917, member: 214939"] I don't know much about women's' college sports, but it would seem to me that the division levels don't mean quite the same thing as they do for men's football and basketball where there is a significant revenue component. My brother's step daughter plays for a division III school despite having higher level offers. I think the degree and "fit " of the school itself was much more important to the decision than level of competition. Wash U is an outstanding school. I suspect that where there is little chance of a lucrative pro career no matter what level you play in college, there probably isn't that significant of a difference in the level of competition.
