About Our Program

What sets our athletic program apart is our ability to balance competitive excellence with a strong emphasis on sportsmanship. A key factor in our success is our coaching staff, primarily made up of faculty members, which ensures a well-rounded approach to both coaching and education. Our coaches understand that athletics provide a powerful platform for teaching, using every opportunity to instill values like respect, teamwork, community, and personal growth. These "teaching moments" help build not only athletic skills but also the character that will serve our students throughout their lives.
