Our Program
Welcome to Buccaneer Athletics!
“Our athletics program is an integral part of the student experience at Country Day. Our work builds on the lessons our student-athletes are learning in the classroom, serves as a focal point of school and community pride, and connects us with peer schools and communities beyond our campus. Our school-wide commitment to excellence is at the heart of all that we do.”
Abe Wehmiller, Director of Athletics
