In my decades of training and coaching basketball and seeing athletes go on to Division 1 programs, I've seen some tremendous success stories, as well as players and families who struggled along the way, for various reasons. Over the years, I have compiled my experiences and observations into concrete thoughts that became the foundation for this book. Here, I attempt to point out some of the roadblocks, challenges, and opportunities that await student athletes and families who pursue D-1 scholarships on the road of travel basketball This book is written for you, the parent who wants to support and advocate for your child, to prepare and equip you for success. This book is also written for you, the student athlete, as you learn to OWN the journey, and take responsibility for all YOU can do to claim the prize you seek: a scholarship and a place on a D-1 roster. I have endeavored to speak to both audiences in this book-the parent and the player. The path of D-1 sports is not an easy one, but it IS a memorable one. I hope this book will provide you with the information and direction you need to be successful, and to enjoy every minute of your journey on the road of travel basketball.

Our understanding of the functional mechanisms relating dopamine activity to normal and abnormal behavior has been turned "upside-down" by the recent developments described in the chapters of this volume. Heretofore, it was generally agreed that all of the pharmacological and behavioral properties ascribed to dopamine systems were mediated via activation or inhibition of the subtype of dopamine receptors termed D2. The properties of these receptors were first characterized in 1975 following their identification by receptor binding techniques utilizing 3H-butyrophenones, potent antipsychotic drugs, used in the treatment of schizophrenia. Although another subtype of dopamine receptor had already been identified a few years earlier, now termed the Dl receptor, its functional properties were unknow- other than the fact that it was associated with the activation of the enzyme adenylate cyclase. Our absence of knowledge of the behavioral functions of this receptor stemmed primarily from the lack of selective agonist and antagonists for DI receptors - drugs which did not also interact with D2 receptors. Selective agents for D2 receptors did exist and hence the behavioral roles of D2 receptors were easily ascribed. The work described in this text is primarily stimulated by the development of two selective Dl receptor drugs - the antagonist SCH 23390 and the agonist SKF 38393. The studies described herein clearly show that D1 receptors do indeed have many behavioral functions, on the surface often similar to those responses mediated by D2 receptors.
