Hi,
First: CollegeVine is not a site to ask advertise colleges/ask colleges personal questions. This is a forum to ask questions about the admissions process, courses to take in high school ect.. If you want to ask a college this question, please email them directly through their undergraduate admissions email address on the specific college's website.
Second: Please don't write emails like this. It's very unprofessional and even though people say they don't go off of first impressions, they still do. Do not make every single word start with an uppercase letter, DO NOT use slang, and do not use "guys". Also, try to introduce who you are, other than the fact that you're in 9th grade. In your case, tell them the school you go to currently, the sport you currently play/level among other things.
Third : Colleges are professional institutions, so please keep this in mind when you write emails next time. Also, for any future emails you write, whether it be to a teacher, admissions counselor, future job, ANYONE, keep the level of professionalism in mind and regard them with respect even if you've never met them before. I'm not saying to "butter them up", but everyone deserves a bit of respect.
I apologize if this was a bit blunt, but emails/writings such as this will often keep people from getting things that they otherwise might have deserved. There's a bit of truth when people say that your personality can show through based on how and what you write.
Even if it's not an email specifically(it might be a resume, essay, application, anything), I encourage you to maintain a level of professionalism, and it doesn't have to include big words, cheesy paragraphs, or big fancy sentences. Just regard the receiver with respect, be to the point while making sure you said everything that was necessary, don't use slang, make sure your grammar is correct, and be sure to thank the college(or anyone) if/when they send a response.
I hope this helps
