The climbing program encourages students to set personal goals, both mental and physical, and create plans to accomplish them. On shorter practice days we travel to nearby Rumney Rocks, a premier sport climbing destination and one of the best venues for learning to rock climb in America. On longer days we venture to granite cliffs around the state, from single-pitch venues in Franconia Notch to multi-pitch experiences on Cathedral and Whitehorse Ledges in North Conway. On rainy days we hike any of the numerous mountains close to campus or work on technical skills in the gym.
An Army ROTC Scholarship recipient, Cum Laude Society member, Conor History Medal winner, Joseph M. Massik English Prize winner, and Coaches’ Award winner, Gina Mulcahy ’25 accomplished a lot in her four years at Holderness. This winter, she added to her long list of accolades when she earned the title of 2025 USASA Nationals 17-18 Junior Women Slopestyle National Champion.
“I'm not in this position to grow as a coach if I didn't spend those two years at Holderness,” Austin Spurs Head Coach Scott King ’10 said as he reflected on his first season in charge of the San Antonio Spurs’ NBA G League affiliate.
Congratulations to all the exceptional student-athletes who made this spring sports season a success! Their hard work and dedication were always on display, from the field to the diamond to the court. Whether in practice or competition, our Bulls truly represented Holderness School well.
Each week we recognize our student-athletes for their athletic accomplishments. Read on for this months recipients.

When Brooklyn Barnhorst '27, Brooke Schemmel '28, Nina Martin '28, and Reese Harrigan '28 arrived at Sugarloaf for U16 US Nationals, nerves ran high. For Reese, it was her first time on the national stage. “I was really nervous going into it,” she admitted. “Sugarloaf has an intense reputation.” But what surprised her wasn’t the hill—it was the community.
