Our mantra is simple: play hard, play tough defense, and be unselfish on offense. We compete in the Lakes Region League – one of the most competitive leagues in the country – against Brewster, Kimball Union Academy, New Hampton, Proctor, St. Paul's, Tilton, and Vermont Academy. We also compete in the NEPSAC B class with twenty-six other schools.
