LETTER FROM THE HEADMASTER ______

Our cover story focuses on our athletics program, one of the many extraordinary opportunities that we provide our students. Student- athletes at Doane learn lessons on their teams that simply can’t be taught in the classroom – the importance of sportsmanship, grace, physical endurance, and teamwork, to name but a few. We believe strongly that the education they receive from being part of a team, whatever their role, is a vital part of our students’ school experience.

I was fortunate to attend an independent school that, like Doane, encourages students to participate actively in the athletic program. My school was small, so I had the opportunity to play a much bigger role on my teams than I would have at my town’s large public high school. I played soccer and was (at least this is how I remember it) pretty good. I also started on the basketball team, which comes as a great surprise to anyone who has ever seen me play basketball. My coach referred to me as a “defensive-minded guard”, which was a generous way of saying that I couldn’t shoot. But while I was not a star athlete, many of my high school experiences that were truly transformative took place on the soccer field or basketball court.

School sports today are much more complicated than they were when I was playing in the 1970s. Many feel the need to specialize in a particular sport, hoping to be among the very small percentage of students who earn a college scholarship based on their athletic ability. All high school sports are more demanding than they were in the past, with greater attention to intense training. But what has not changed are the benefits that students derive from their participation in athletics, especially at a smaller school such as Doane. I hope you enjoy reading about the sports program at Doane, and I look forward to seeing you at a game this year.

Sincerely,

COVER STORY ______SPARTANS STATE OF PLAY A DEEPER LOOK INTO OUR ATHLETIC PROGRAM

With appearances by teams in the Prep state finals in each of the last Zach Bhuiyan ’20, who at the time was attending Burlington Township two years, the athletics program at Doane is thriving. But the success of High School, found out about Doane when playing club baseball against school sports is measured in many ways, not merely in counting up wins a team that included a current Doane student, Matthew Pfister ’21. “My and losses. In recent years, for example, student participation in sports dad and I then investigated Doane and saw that it had a more has remained strong at Doane and the school’s athletic offerings have challenging academic program and better sports than my school,” grown – both signs of a healthy program. At the same time, keeping up explained Bhuiyan of his decision to apply for admission. Since arriving with the evolving role of school sports is a challenge, requiring an at Doane in 10th grade, Bhuiyan has excelled both in the classroom (“I investment in facilities and an ongoing reevaluation of trends in physical find the class es more in depth and challenging than at my old school,” education. he notes) and on the baseball field, where he led the team in home runs while playing first base and pitcher last spring. “The biggest change has been that we are better able to attract scholar athletes to Doane now than we were in the past,” explains Dan New Jersey is a difficult place for independent schools to compete in Williamson, who has served as Director of Athletics since 2013. He sports because the state lacks a critical mass of similarly sized schools. notes that students who are considering Doane now have a better Doane is a member of, and competes with, schools that are members of appreciation for the excellence of the academic program as well as the the New Jerse y State Interscholastic Athletic Association (NJSIAA).

The combination of strong academics and competitive addition Doane is a member of the Penn-Jersey League, a group of sports teams is a powerful draw for prospective students and their smaller independent schools such as Villa Victoria and Solebury in New families. Jersey and Pennsylvania.

COVER STORY ______

In each of the past six years, Doane has won the Penn Jersey boys cross-country championship, an unprecedented run of dominance. The team’s coach over this period, Kirk Lombardi, says that the team’s record of achievement “is because of our runners, of course, but also it's a function of the discipline and respect that w e have for consistency and preparation. The proper diet, rest time, strategy, and the philosophy that you are never happy with your time until you beat your best all helps us succeed the way we do. We train hard every day to achieve our goals and training hard has become not just the norm, but our tradition.“

In other sports, Doane has stepped up in recent years to play larger Prep B schools in N ew Jersey that compete against each other in the season and then come together for a season-ending state tournament. Prep B schools include, among others, Pennington, Princeton Day,

Rutgers Prep, and Morristown Beard – each of which has an upper ______school student body that is at least three times the size of that at Doane. Despite this huge size disadvantage, Doane has more than held its own against this c ompetition.

This past spring, the softball team defeated Rutgers Prep, Wardlaw Hartridge, and Montclair Kimberly to reach the Prep B state finals for the first time in school history. Despite being edged by Morristown Beard in the championship game, the girls had a great deal to be proud of and, with many players returning, the future is very bright for the program.

The boys basketball team has experience d similar success in recent years. In 2017, they reached the Prep B state finals after defeating Princeton Day, Montclair Kimberly, and Pennington, losing in a thrilling overtime matchup against Morristown Beard. The boys play a very challenging schedule, especially for a school of Doane’s size, and have regularly gone toe-to-toe with some of the top programs in the state.

The health of the sp orts program at Doane can be seen in the school’s success against formidable competition. But it also is evident in the growth of sports offered to students. In recent years, girls’ tennis has been reintroduced to the athletics program. While the team no longer plays on campus, as it did when St. Mary’s Hall had several courts of its own, the girls are able to utilize nearby facilities for practice and matches. In addition, two years ago Doane began a bowling team that competes in the winter against local high schools. Coached by history teacher Colleen McCormick, who competed in bowling at the Division I level in college, the team has drawn dozens of students and has found a home at a bowling alley in Burlington.

Adding bowling takes some of the pressure off basketball, the only other sport offered at the school in the winter season, but Doane still has five basketball teams – two in the middle school and three in the upper school – sharing one gymnasium. Scheduling team practices and games is a challenge, requiring the middle school to use an undersized facility at the YMCA and at least one upper school team to practice in the evening. Addressing the need for adequate space for the athletics prog ram will be a high priority for Doane in the coming years.

Unlike those who practice and play in the gymnasium, Doane’s crew team benefits from being able to walk to its boathouse and row on the Reflecting the high quality of the Doane program, Shirley Zhang ’18 will Delaware River – in essence, the school’s front yard.

SPARTANS STATE OF PLAY ______

Many Doane graduates in recent years have also gone on to play men’s and women’s college basketball. Bryce Greene ’16 led Elizabethtown College in scoring this past year and was named to the Landmark Conference all-star team. Moreover, Doane college athletes have been making positive contributions off the court: point guard Chris Scott ’14 was recently awarded the Shirley Wentworth Award at Wesley College for outstanding sportsmanship, work ethic, character, courage, and commitment. The class of 2018 includes two students who will go on to play college basketball: David Rodriguez at The College of New Jersey and Tania Bryant at Cedar Crest College. ______

Doane believes that school sports teams should not cut any players, so everyone is encouraged to play on school teams. Part of the education of a Doane athlete is found in learning how to play with teammates with varying levels of ability and experience. This range is especially apparent in soccer, where some players come to Doane from travel teams while others are playing the game for the first time.

Mary Ann Williamson, head coach of the girls’ soccer team, understands how to make the most out of a team that has a diverse set of experiences. “You are only as strong as your weakest player—be it skill, endurance, and willingness to get better. So we cultivate a culture where the team, not just the coaches, helps everyone get better. By the end of the season everyone has grown and gotten better as a player and a teammate.” The success of this philos ophy is seen on the field, where the girls’ team has gone deep into the Penn-Jersey playoffs for the past several seasons. This fall, they will begin the year as one of the teams to beat in the conference, the result of hard work with a young team for the past two years.

The boys' soccer team faces challenges that are similar to those experienced by the girls. This fall, Doane welcomed a new boys' head coach, Ryan Smales, who comes to the team with playing and coaching experience at the club and college level in England and the United States. Coach Smales notes how important it is to have a team whose culture matches that of the school. “I like to develop the team as a whole into a way of playing that is successful, enjoyable to play in, and enjoyable to watch,” he wrote to the team this summer. “A large part of that is developing the individuals in that team, both as players and as people. All of this pulled together can create an incredible experience for all involved and that is what I am planning to bring to Doane Academy.”

While many area schools now play soc cer on artificial turf fields, which are easier to maintain and provide a more consistent surface for players, Doane continues to play on natural grass. One of the challenges faced at Doane is how much wear the fields get, and the limited opportunity to repair them when one season runs into the next. ______
