Chris Lane - Marine

Question
Coach Perl --

If you run across Chris Lane or any other guys coming out of the military, feel free to point them to our website MilitaryAthletes.org

We provide a free service to assist these athletes (funded through veteran and fan donations).

Thanks coach,
Dan

Answer
Dan -

Thanks for that information.  I didnt know about the site you mentioned, but will definitely check that out ASAP.  I will also make sure and pass that site on to my current team.  We do have several players who have either served or are currently serving in the military, and if they dont know about it, they should.

I am anxious to hear about how Chris does in his search for a school.  The last time we wrote, he had some great leads, and things were looking pretty nice for him.  So fingers crossed, all will work out.  From just our writing, he seems like a good kid, with alot of drive.  That will serve him well in his search.

I think that website is a great idea.. IF there is anything I can do to help out with the athletes, please let me know.  I cant imagine what these young men and women go through re-adapting to normal, everyday society.  Feel free to let me know if I can be of assistance to the site, or any of the individual athletes. I would be glad to perform this same service to those on your site as well.  Might be a good idea to get people to it, and could be very helpful to the athletes on it currently.  I would imagine that most of the athletes in the military have the same questions as Chris. I would be honored to assist them in whatever they need.  IF youd like to discuss this further, please write a follow-up on this site with your email address and I can contact you personally.  That way we can communicate in a private manner.

Best wishes and thank you again

Coach Perl
