Our athletic department works to reinforce the idea that while a good competitor always plays to win, that competitor also understands that the true measure of performance is not necessarily winning, but giving it his/her all.
Through team memberships, students learn that they have a responsibility to themselves, their teammates, and their coaches to maximize the development of many interpersonal skills such as listening, expressing one’s opinion, following directions, accepting constructive criticism, and supporting the decisions of teammates and coaches.
It is the job of the director of athletics and the coaching staff to create, sustain, and enhance the learning environment.
