Fall Athletes Honored at Assemblies

Browning celebrated its fall season athletes at morning assemblies on October 31. In his welcome to the Form I-VI boys, Head of Upper School Jim Reynolds remarked on the energy and sportsmanship of all the Browning athletes. While the fifth and sixth graders attended a separate sports assembly, Mr. Reynolds encompassed players at all levels when he said, "Win or lose, you always represent Browning so well. You add so much to the community and to the spirit of the School." Mr. Reynolds lauded the loyal fans who support from the sidelines and make such a difference. Before turning over the program to Athletic Director Andrew West '92, he said, "Thank you to the Phys Ed department and to all our dedicated coaches."

Coach West, who coaches baseball in the spring, noted that he enjoys being a spectator in the fall. "Our JV teams have come so far this past season," he said, "which is a great sign for the future of our varsity teams. I am very proud of how all the boys handled themselves. Never have I heard anything negative about our athletes from referees or other coaches."

Coach West then presented a slide show produced by Director of Communications Design Jeremy Katz ‘04 of action shots from the season. Photographers Sandy Pelz ’71 and Christine Bramble take most of these wonderful photos and spend many an afternoon cheering on the Panthers. Watch the video highlights below
