beRecruited has had some great press coverage over the last few weeks – in part because of our growth, in part because of recruiting season and in part because of the struggling economy (which puts more of a need on scholarship availability / seeking).

The latest was coverage by Boston’s WBZ whose coverage was both on television (see video below) and in print. The exciting theme in all of beRecruited’s recent press is the service’s effectiveness.

Courtney Letourneau, a soccer player at Wachusett Regional High School, joined Berecruited.com early in her college search. She said she heard from dozens of coaches.

Courtney landed a scholarship at Long Island University.

“I only have to pay $3,000 a year,” she said.
