The momentum behind TFS' athletics is building
What happens when you mix athletes' skill and drive with coaches' expertise
and the school's commitment? For the TFS athletics program it led to 16
championships in 2011-2012, a year with just 38 for the taking. The 201213 year started strong as well, with five championships secured in fall, and 21
teams rising to the challenge for winter sports.
For a school renowned for its strong academics,
TFS is on a winning sports streak. While the
changes have been gradual, the sheer number
of wins by our teams has been encouraging.
Entre Nous spoke with Athletic Director Steve
Turner, who was happy to share his insights.
"A lot of people have been noticing little
changes over time, but they are adding up
to great results," explains Mr. Turner. "Personally, I've seen a real surge in our athletes'
competitiveness and in the pure energy they
bring to the field and in the gym." Mr. Turner
notes, "our school administrators have been
real advocates for our programs, ensuring that
athletes are supported as they balance training and games with their academic workload."
