A coach advises a soccer player on building highlight reels: lead with club footage from MLS Next or ECNL, not high school clips, because out-of-state recruiters don't know local programs. The student is exploring Division III schools and considering Caltech for math.

Highlight videos can be a mix of high school and club. Ideally, it's a little bit heavier on the club side. But if you have a great moment, as you've just described to me there, of you in high school, that's amazing. It just can't only be high school, especially in your case, because your high school is very good academically, but it's not like it's famous for its soccer in the, in the big soccer world within your community. Yes, but not really. Like, even, uh, Loyola is a really good high school soccer team, and they're known for their amazing high school soccer, but they're still not— and some of their players may go play high-level Division I schools, but it's still not as good as playing for an MLS Next or ECNL team by some coaches' standards. And coaches out of state really have no idea about the high schools here, traditionally speaking. So that's very good. Okay, good. Now, I know you're waiting for me to finish your video. Have you written genuine aspects for your D3 schools?
I put some on the list that I searched up that were like— Yes, I see them here.
So these are great. All these schools, California, Caltech. Are you really into math?
