Mission Statement:
To instill a “Topper Tough” mentality- Academically, Physically, Mentally and Social/Emotionally tough! Athletics are an extension of the academic day where our coaching staff is charged with the responsibility to teach the values of accepting success graciously, accountability, citizenship, sportsmanship, confidence, tolerance, handling adversity/disappointment, leadership, organizational skills, participation within the rules, performing under pressure, persistence, work ethic, physical well being, responsibility, sacrifice, self-discipline, social skills, striving toward excellence, taking instruction and teamwork. The program strives to have all athletes play with “poise and class.” This should be a very important part of the instruction that takes place at each practice session.
