<p>but it seems like everyone else who was accepted is.
I really want to go to Amherst but will I feel like the odd man out?</p>
<p>My twin and I both enjoy sports but neither has played a varsity sport in HS nor are recruited (obviously lol).</p>
<p>I am the anti-athlete…I don’t have a problem with sports, but I honestly do not know the rules to football…and yet I very likely will go to Amherst next year…it should be fine for us all.</p>
<p>I don’t think you would be an odd-man out at all. I think that Amherst does have a lot of athletes, yes, but a lot of people who even mention, “Oh, I play softball” only play casually for fun. That’s generally the impression I get from Amherst - a lot of people play around on different teams and clubs because the school is small and they try to encourage students to get involved, but that doesn’t mean everyone is a cutthroat athlete. But it may give an impression that everyone is playing sports!</p>
<p>For example, on my intro in the Amherst Facebook group, I mentioned I play soccer, but really I haven’t been on a field in five months and I don’t even know if I would play at Amherst! I will see what I feel like when I get there. 
So over the internet you might get the impression that I’m an athlete, whereas that’s definitely not my focus.</p>
<p>Is there club baseball at Amherst (i.e. hardball…on big diamond) or only softball?</p>
<p>scocious, the Amherst Athletics page lists softball as an intermural spring sport. There is neither baseball nor softball listed as a club sport.</p>
