Coaches: Anyone looking for a good Freshman Girl?

I coach a girl who is a high school senior. She PR'd last week in the CT State Class LL (i.e. the really big schools) championships - winning the girls at 10-9. She's done 10-0 consistently all season. She's got good grades (3.5+) and an SAT over 1150. She had been planning to attend UCONN but went to orientation this week and said that she had hated it, and doesn't want to go there.
Anybody got an ideas about where else she might look at this late date?
Feel free to send me a PM if you'd prefer to do that rather then posting to the general site. I'm okay either way.
Thanks,

Depending on how far she wants to travel there are some great juco's in ks. Cowley Community College with coach philips my former school and Johnson County where tom hays is at. Phillips has coached 5 guys over 17, and to many to count over 16, he has had quite a few girls jump 12+. Hays has some good girls and is also working with amy linnen and andrea dutoit, hes the former coach at arizona...

We really need girl vaulters at Lindenwood. 10 feet would be pretty competitive in our conference, and I am sure Lane could get her higher than 11 which would get her to Nationals. You or her can give Lane a call at the track office at 636-949-4801

You guys are great. Keep the leads coming, please. I appreciate those who have posted and those who have sent me pm's.
This is a good girl who's dedicated. She always cheers on her teammates (and even encourages and helps her competitors,,,more than I'm even comfortable with sometimes!). She's been to Skyjumpers camp twice - once even traveling from CT to Atascadero.
Thanks again. I look forward to more leads.
