The mountain biking program rostered 13 athletes this spring, the most in the program’s short but successful history. Returning riders Altay Jomazer, Eyan Morales, Clark Rutherford, and Ewan Wheeler highlight a team with mixed experience on bikes. From beginner riders to talented shredders, this year’s team will work together towards a common goal of conquering the trails, respecting nature, and creating community through this lifelong sport.

  • First-year players Santi Aguerreverre and Rubin Xiao have shown up well during practice and will be counted on for minutes during boys’ lacrosse’s first game next week.
  • Returning players Abigail Chang, Sophie Cutie, and Harper Treisman will need to step into expanded roles for the girls’ varsity lacrosse team this spring.
  • The girls’ junior varsity lacrosse team rostered 17 players this spring, including returning players Anna Bantham-Livermore, Sylvie Fry, Mame Gensler, and Nihka Linhart.
  • Sixth grade classmates Jacob Jarbeau and Max Kishlansky earned spots on the highly competitive varsity tennis team. The duo will be battling for ladder position this week.
  • Nuria Kumar-Warikoo and Colby Schneider are returning for their second year of junior varsity tennis. The seventh grade classmates are primed for a successful season.
  • Zoe Bantham-Livermore, Bea Stevenson, and Reema Wulfsberg joined the track & field team this spring and will provide some serious firepower on the track.
  • Seventh Graders Joshua Harriette, Colin Parry, Murilo Santos, and Noah Yang will provide depth to the ultimate program this spring building both a junior varsity and varsity schedule.
