Dear ACC, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your invaluable help with the recruiting process for my two swimmers. This process is challenging and stressful for everyone involved. What makes Lori Payne such an asset to your organization is her ability to break down the process for the recruits as well as the parents. In doing so, Lori created the ultimate team for our family. I also believe her drive and integrity are paramount as well as her willingness to talk honestly with both my kids. This process is not for the faint of heart, but she prepared my swimmers to face the ups and downs that inevitably all recruits face. Lori brought endless options for both kids and never stopped fighting for them until she knew they had found a college that perfectly fit all their needs, both academically and athletically. This wouldn’t have happened without Lori by our side! We will forever be grateful!
