“I Didn’t Realize How Much I Didn’t Know”

"I thought I had it all figured out when I signed my offer—until I actually got to campus. That’s when I realized how much I didn’t know. STARS fills in all the gaps. It helps understand eligibility, how to make smart NIL decisions, and most of all, how to stay mentally strong in a high-pressure environment. I’m grateful I had it before stepping into the Big Ten—it gave me an edge way beyond my skills on the court."

Brooklyn T. - CA Student

“Support Beyond the Track”

"STARS showed us that elite talent alone isn’t enough. This program walked us through what college coaches actually look for, how to avoid common recruiting mistakes, and how to protect our son’s future in a world where NIL is changing everything. The mental wellness session alone was worth it. Every parent of a top athlete needs this kind of support beyond the track."

Shandra L. - TX Parent

“Confidence in Every Step”

"Volleyball isn’t always in the spotlight, especially for boys. But STARS gave our family the confidence we needed—breaking down what schools look for, how to prepare academically, and even what to consider when evaluating offers from smaller programs. It made us feel seen and prepared. Now, our son is proudly headed to his desired school—and we couldn’t be more grateful."

Salim B. - FL Parent

“Prepared Me for More Than Just the Track"

"I thought my times would do all the talking, but STARS opened my eyes. It showed me how much more goes into getting recruited—grades, communication, mindset, even how to handle NIL conversations. I’m still figuring out where I’ll run in college, but now I know what questions to ask and how to stay in control of my journey. STARS prepared me for more than just the track—it prepared me for everything around it."
