The Athletics Department hosted the annual Winter Varsity Awards ceremony on Sunday, March 24, as the winter varsity teams and their coaches, as well as parents and other supporters, gathered in the Hubbard Performance Hall to honor the teams and their players on a great season.

Among the highlights of the season: Loomis won the New England Prep School Athletic Conference (NEPSAC) Class B Championship in girls squash for the first time in program history and Founders League championships in girls basketball, girls ice hockey, and boys swimming. The girls basketball team advanced to the NEPSAC championship game, and the equestrian team sent several of its riders to the regional championships for the second straight year.
