What others are saying about us...
Josh Huestis- Founder Josh Huestis Foundation, Echo Sports Training (Former NBA)
Working with Linda has been a pleasure. Her knowledge of recruitment strategies and approaches is outweighed only by her personal investment and the care she has for the athletes she works with. She is a must have resource for anyone interested in being recruited to play a collegiate sport.
Blaine & Kristine McElmurry - Parent 2024 WBB Signee
The basketball recruiting process can be overwhelming at times. Linda’s guidance from day one thru signing was so helpful. It was nice to have someone in your corner who not only played at a high level but also has guided many athletes thru the whole process. Can’t say enough what a valuable resource Linda has been to us and our daughter.
Shilo Lampi - 2024 WBB Signee
Linda has been my rock throughout my recruiting process. I believe that without her help I wouldn’t have had as many opportunities as I have. She answered every question I had, inspired me, guided me, pushed me, and cheered me on.
Jami Moy - Parent 2023 WBB Signee
If your athlete wants to compete at the next level, Linda is the resource you've been looking for. PM me and I'll get you in touch with her. She is knowledgeable, patient, has connections and is incredibly funny. She doesn't sugar coat the hard truths but will be your athlete's biggest cheerleader. She asks the tough questions and teaches your athlete how to ask the even tougher ones of potential programs.
Dani Morris - Parent 2023 WBB Signee
If your son/daughter is interested in playing at the college level you need to work with Linda! She is so incredibly knowledgeable and makes the entire process easy to understand and navigate. She does not do the work for the kids but she guides them along the way and keeps them on track with all the best advice and tips on how to go about the recruitment process. She goes all in for each of the kids she represents and will do anything for them. She bursts with pride for all of these athletes and shares in their excitement. She is the REAL deal!
Amy Hunter - Parent 2023 MBB Signee
Linda has been a gift to our family throughout the recruiting process. Her study of recruiting is apparent, and she utilizes her knowledge to guide students... she was an asset throughout, and became increasingly vital as recruiting intensified. We would highly recommend Linda and will without a doubt utilize her in the future for our other children.
Katie Garcin-Forba- Helena-Capital Head Girls Basketball Coach
Linda invests time and energy into getting to know the athletes she’s representing so that she can represent their best interests. She is one of the most real and genuine professionals who helps players and families find the right fit. I have watched her spend endless hours in the gym to support her athletes, making sure she knows them as a player and person. Linda is the real deal!
Delaney Wagner - 2024 VB Signee
​Linda made the recruiting process so much easier than doing it with no knowledge of the process. She helped me get noticed and get my name out to the colleges I was interested in. Working with Linda made the program much easier and it was a person experience unlike apps that do it all for you, she guided me through the steps of talking to coaches and colleges.
Erika Gustavsen - Gallatin High School Teacher/ Head Volleyball Coach
Linda provides an honest evaluation and perspective for athletes and their families and reliability through the recruitment process. She works hard to truly make the athlete better during this process and help them achieve their goals.
Emily McElmurry- 2024 WBB Signee
Linda is very organized and gives you step by step tasks to help you complete for recruiting. She makes communicating with coaches easy and is always right there to answer any questions you might have. Linda is a great person to have in your corner on the court and off! I have so enjoyed getting to know her and be on her team.
David Lampi- Parent 2024 WBB Signee
Linda is extremely passionate about what she does and very knowledgeable about the recruiting process. We started out using one of the national recruiting platforms and realized a much greater benefit with LWJ immediately. She took a genuine interest in getting to know our daughter on many levels. Linda ALWAYS made herself available, ALWAYS kept us focused and grounded. We will truly miss working with her, but know we have a lifelong friend.
Jessica Millimen - Parent 2024 Signee
Linda has helped so much with organizing, problem-solving, and identifying colleges. She is knowledgeable on the next steps and overcoming hurdles.
Dymon Root - 2024 WBB Signee
Linda made the recruiting process so much easier and I seriously wouldn't have made it this far without her! She pushed me out of my comfort zone and believed in me since day one. I created so many connections with coaches, had so many questions answered, and really felt like I knew what I was doing during this process, all with Linda's help. Linda drove me to greatness and success and I am so thankful for her!
Becca Weginer - Parent 2024 WBB Signee
We worked with Linda through our daughter’s senior year and her college recruiting experience and the results we received far exceeded our expectations! As we had no idea where to even start this process and what to expect. She truly cares for the athlete. She is there every step of the way but also guides them through the process so they know how to do it themselves. We will forever be grateful for Linda! 100% recommend LWJ productions
Scott Glasscock - Parent 2025 Recruit
Linda bridges the gap between being a high school player and having the opportunity to play collegiate sports. She has the ability to explain to an athlete what they are good at and what they need to improve upon so they have the skills necessary to play at the next level.
Nicole Capser - Parent 2024 FB Signee
Linda was invaluable to our family in supporting Braden to pursue college athletics. As parents, we did not understand the process and could not find the needed help within our circle. Not only did Linda provide information and assistance for us, but she supported and empowered Braden in working toward his goals. Linda was available, responsive, and helped Braden with all aspects of the recruitment process. It is apparent she cares for each one of her clients as a person and truly invests in their future.
Carolyn McLeod - Parent 2024 WBB Signee
It can be an overwhelming process trying to help your child find the right fit both for academics and athletics. Linda took away the struggle and kept it all in perspective. Therefore, her preparation helped us know when the fit had been found!
Carsen Bender - East Helena Head Girls Basketball Coach
The personal connection/relationship that you are giving kids and families through the process is the most valuable thing. Other valuable parts of what you do are helping players make contact with coaches via LWJ recruiting emails and mentoring them on not giving up when they don't get their desired results right away.
Amanda Cram - Glacier High School Girls Basketball Head Coach
Linda's athlete-centered approach to bridging the knowledge gap in recruiting is exactly what has been missing for many athletes and parents. As a coach, Linda has become an extension of my program and has helped build up athletes working to play at the next level through honest feedback and evaluation, mentoring, and thoughtful communication. Linda cares for the athletes she represents as people, not just players, and empowers them to be the best version of themselves. Linda helps high school coaches focus on their programs while she works diligently behind the scenes for individual athletes. Working with Linda is a no-brainer!
Paula Lampi - Parent 2024 WBB Signee
I am SO thankful to have had Linda’s help during the recruiting process. It was at times tricky and trying but Linda knew what to say and do. It was very personal-unlike another recruiting services we used. She was a great help to our daughter. She could support and push her in ways we couldn’t. Plus, I just love her and she brought so much fun and joy to the process.
Josh Stewart - Former Lodge Grass Boys Basketball Coach
LWJ imparts a wealth of knowledge onto those who are capable of playing at the next level. She uses her experience & success of playing at the D1 level, and her platform, to bring exposure to student-athletes who maybe didn't have it before.
