“I play basketball at Kalamazoo College and owe my presence there to Ms. Lipton, who guided me through the recruiting process. She suggested Kalamazoo College, and I pursued it, ultimately choosing to attend. I feel blessed to be where I am. I recognize Ms. Lipton as a significant influence in my journey and am forever grateful to her.”

“I can’t say enough about the incredible impact Coach Molly Lipton has had on my son Beckett’s athletic and personal journey. From day one, coach Lipton believed in Beckett’s potential and continually pushed him to develop—not just as an athlete, but as a committed student and an outstanding young man.
coach Lipton was instrumental in guiding us through the recruiting process for Michigan State. HER deep knowledge of the landscape, constant encouragement, and willingness to go the extra mile made all the difference. Whether it was helping Beckett refine his skills, advocating for him with college scouts, or providing candid, honest feedback, coach Lipton was always there. As parents, she guided us through the recruitment process and has extended beyond recruitment and now is helping with NIL opportunities for our son. She is always available for consultation and advice. She has really changed our lives!
Beckett’s dream of running for a Division 1 university (Michigan State University) is now a reality, and we know it wouldn’t have happened without coach Lipton’s support and expertise. Beckett has received a scholarship for track/field and cross country. We are forever grateful for the dedication, integrity, and personal attention coach Lipton gave our family.”
