"Lou Birch is the real deal. Without his efforts my son Austen doesn’t find Hamline University. Lou brought a number of schools to the table that our family had not even considered. Lou followed up with coach after coach and he kept us in loop every step of the way. Most importantly, Lou told us what we needed to know not what we wanted to hear. Lou was always prompt returning our calls and still is to this day. Lou brings a genuine excitement to the process because he loves what he does and it shows in his efforts. We publicly endorse Lou and STUDENTathleteWorld every chance we get and we would like to thank Lou for everything he has done and continues to do. Here’s to a lifelong friend." [Note: Austen committed to Hamline University]
