At alot of AA schools where the numbers are high you can be replaced if you don't improve significantly in the offseason. The mentallity "its better to quit two and make one than to be cut from all three" applies. At smaller schools you see more 3 sport atheletes because there aren't as many kids competing for the same spot.
I don't disagree but when kids are 8-9 years they are focusing on one sport? This is guided by the parents.
