Against The Hill School, he played three different positions throughout the game, giving the team what it needed in some really difficult moments. Later in the week, while away at Shipley, Michael was lively and dangerous from the opening whistle. This helped lead the boys to a 3-2 win over the perennial Friends' League power, and he personally finished with 1 goal and 2 assists. Well done, Michael!

Keep it up, Brandon!

Rollins Whitten '27 & Maryn Delp '29 - Tennis - Rolly and Maryn were relentless in their determination to beat the Hill School on Saturday.

Great job, Rolly and Maryn!

We're looking forward to more moments of magic from Pat this fall.  Keep climbing, sir!

Sidney Smith '27 - Volleyball - Sidney was excellent last week vs Lawrenceville and Perkiomen with 7 kills, 5 blocks, and 3 aces. As a middle, Sidney is responsible for challenging each and every opponent’s attacker as well as initiating our offense. She is a force to be reckoned with on the court, and if you've seen it live, you’d know! Her attacks are from a height that few others can contend with, and the power with which she attacks is a sound you can feel- when she connects on a block, the whole gym knows! Keep it up, #9!
