Athletics within USCGA

[natspikus101]

I am almost done with my application (sending it in November 15th!), and had a quick question about athletics at USCGA. The volleyball coach contacted me once but never responded again, so would it be okay if I tried out for the team still? Or does he already have his recruits in mind when try outs begin. I am confused if you need to be contacted by the varsity coach to play intercollegiate sports. And I have always been interested in sailing but unfortunately never partcipated in it. Would I be able to join the team with no prior experience?

Nice thing about D3 sports... you can try out, and possibly play anything.

So, try out if you want to play and see what happens.

I sailed for my first two years at the Academy as a walk on from the great land lock state of Kansas. If I can get on the team, you can get on the team. No questions asked.
