I agree with other posters that you shouldn’t underestimate the power of an essay your son could write about the UCL that ended his sports career and the family situation that limited his availability for ECs. Compelling, real-life stuff that can set a kid apart. Good luck to him, and congratulations dad on raising a fine, accomplished son. Since he has great stats and money isn’t an issue, you have a wealth of excellent schools to explore, in California and out of state.
