When you have a good reputation and an exciting program then the lure of the team can act as an incentive for students to raise their grades. Mike did not state what the grade level was either. Many sport teams run the same way. Many have to get C average or better to be able to try out for the team.

Mike, can you help us out a little with your teams policies and how they work out?
