2. Stay overnight w/ team
3. Talk w/ financial aid office
4. Read the student newspaper
5. Tour town around campus
6. Go to an on-campus event
7. Talk w/ a current athlete
8. Eat in dining hall
9. Watch practice

Not semi-pro, but 4 years at a place that values you as a student and an athlete
Chris Roycroft played D-III basketball and baseball.
He worked at Jimmy John's and Dick's Sporting Goods on top of both sports to make money.
After going undrafted and two years of indy ball, the Cardinals signed him.
Last night, he made his MLB debut.
