Raising Division I Athletes

Palisades Hudson VP Rebecca Pavese is an experienced financial planner, a CPA, and the mother of two daughters who have played sports at NCAA Division I schools. Her elder daughter earned a cross-country and track scholarship to the University of Tennessee; her younger daughter received a scholarship to play softball at Clemson, where she has kicked off her freshman season this spring. Rebecca sat down with “Something Personal” host Amy Laburda for a discussion about what it’s been like raising young athletes from the early days in recreational leagues through college competition. As both a parent and a financial professional, Rebecca offers advice to athletes’ family members, as well as to young athletes themselves, as they progress toward whatever their ultimate level of play may turn out to be.Links:“Navigating College Admissions” (featuring Rick Clark, Georgia Tech)“Financial Foundations: Budgets And Credit Scores” (featuring Rebecca Pavese, CPA)“Name, Image And Likeness Tips For Student-Athletes” by Eric Meermann, CFP®, CVA, EA
