Maggie Daniel '07, a Country Day lifer, has worked at the school as an assistant teacher and coach for 10 years. “I am very fortunate to be able to work with not only Lower Schoolers in the classroom, but Middle Schoolers and Upper Schoolers on the field,” she says. "As a coach, there is nothing more fulfilling than helping continue to build a program that you played in as a student-athlete."

Maggie was the goalkeeper for the Bucs during her days as a student, and today, she serves as both the Varsity Girls’ Soccer assistant coach, as well as the girls’ goalkeeper coach for the entire seventh through twelfth-grade program, as well as for the Boys’ Upper School program.

"Goalkeeping is a very specialized position, so it makes sense that as we build a comprehensive program, we focus on bringing players up and along at all levels. The work we put in with the Middle School keepers will benefit the JV and varsity teams," she says.
