Practices have emphasized conditioning, stick skills, and communication on the field as the team looks to build a strong foundation before the first scrimmages and games begin. Players say that the environment has been focused, but positive at the same time, with teammates pushing each other to improve while building strong connections off the field as well.Senior captain Lily Peters, returning for her final season, commented on the team’s preparation and mindset: “This year feels special, we’ve been working really hard in preseason, and there’s a lot of excitem

The boys lacrosse program at DC is gearing up for yet another competitive spring season as the Knights look to continue building momentum in one of the school’s growing athletic programs. With a mix of experienced upperclassmen and developing younger players, the team enters the season focused on teamwork and leadership both on and off the field.Leading the Knights this year are key seniors Jay Gricco, Christian O'Donnell, and Costa Samios, three players who have become central figures in the program. These athletes have been instrumental in setting the tone for the team, bringing leadership, intensity, and consistency to practices and games. Over the past few seasons, the trio has helped shape the culture of the program, emphasizing hard work and a strong sense of team unity. “We’re ready to put in the work,” Gricco commented. O’Donnell added, “This team has the potential to go far; we as seniors need to set the tone.” The Knights’ schedule this season will test the team against

 Following a 10-12 season and a trip to the District 1A title game, the Delaware County Christian School Knights baseball team is looking to build on last season in hopes of winning the District 1A Championship game this year.Although the Knights lost a few key players such as Sam Dixon and Beau Lyren to graduation, they return a majority of their lineup, including recently named junior captains Justin Ma, Gabe DiGregorio, and Matteo DeBellis. Moreover, the Knights will continue to be helmed by veteran head coach Jeff Wisnewski.  With the departures from last season, DeBellis stressed that others “ will have to step up.” The junior shortstop remarked, “One challenge will be our pitching situation as new guys will have to step up into a larger pitching role due to five strong pitchers graduating last season.” Justin Ma, a fellow junior captain, added that he “hopes to grow stronger as a team in all aspects within the game.”  One thing remains the same between this year’s

Last season was a tough one for DC’s softball team. Finishing 1-16 and exiting in the first round of districts wasn’t the outcome for which anyone had hoped. However, if there’s one thing this year's team isn’t lacking, it’s motivation.Head coach Nathan Shackleton believes this season feels different. “In terms of excitement, we have some new additions that will be exciting to see how those pieces fit together on the field,” remarks the veteran mentor. With a large group of upperclassmen returning, the focus is on wins. Nevertheless, more importantly, the team is focused on building something lasting. Shackleton emphasizes the opportunity to strengthen team culture and grow closer as a unit. After injuries disrupted last season’s progress, the goal is to stay healthy and make a deep postseason run. According to Shackleton, “A successful season would include reaching the district championship. We have a team that has more overall drive this year.”The work toward that goal has

The Delaware County Christian School boys tennis team is heading to the courts this spring with considerable excitement and even more new faces. After a very strong run where the Knights won back-to-back Bicentennial Athletic League (BAL) titles in 2023 and 2024, the team is now entering a season of growth and transition.Last year was a significant highlight for the program as the Knights dominated their league, fighting hard all the way to the PIAA District 1-2A finals. It was a season that put DC tennis on the map, but it also marked the end of an era for a core group of players. Last year, the program graduated seven seniors last year, including some of the top-seeded players, such as Matthew Levis and Daniel Ho, all of whom helped rebuild the team from the ground up a few years ago.While losing a multitude of players would be a setback for most teams, the Knights are looking at the loss of key players as an opportunity. Fortunately, there is a significant influx of new students joi

At a Christian school, running is not just about speed; it is about purpose. This season, the girls track and field team has been competing at full speed while focusing on character and Christ-like qualities. Every step they take is not just full of momentum, but it is also full of meaning.According to DC’s long-time head coach, “Doc” McFarland, leadership and event depth are two major strengths for the girls team. He explains that DC features “strong leaders, good girls jumpers, especially in the long jump and triple jump; solid sprinters and hurdlers; strong core of mid and long distance runners.” He adds, “I am blessed, too, with some outstanding coaches to assist me.” Additionally, Coach McFarland notes that preparation is a major emphasis in practice: “A majority of the time is conditioning but also time working on technique in the respective events. I am a 100% believer, too, in the weight room for all track athletes. Coach Robert Herrick does an excellent job in conditionin

As the spring season begins, the boys track and field team is entering the year with strong leadership and high expectations. Led by senior captain Jonas Ma, junior captain Jake Matty, and sophomore captain Kellen Reed, the program is predicated on resilience and hard work, all while retaining a tightly-knit culture. Ma, a senior sprinter, competes in the 100m, 200m, and 4x1 relay while serving as captain for the second consecutive year. He views his role as one that encompasses both responsibility and an uplifting influence: “To me, being a team captain means I have an added sense of responsibility for my actions. I try to maintain a positive and encouraging attitude to set a good example for the team.” The four-year sprinter believes his biggest responsibility is to ensure that every track and field athlete is putting his best foot forward and offering maximal effort. Matty, who also runs in the 100m, 200m, and 4x1 relay alongside Ma, shares a similar mindset regarding his

Coming off a season full of personal bests, postseason qualifiers, and a growing team, the DC indoor track program is heading into the 2025-26 season with optimism, motivation and plenty of goals. Under Head Coach George “Doc” McFarland and Assistant Coach Lloyd Hill, the squad hopes to build on last year’s momentum and compete strongly in every meet. Despite being small, last year’s team proved that size doesn’t determine success. Many athletes improved their times, and a few performers even qualified for impressive postseason competition: seniors Marielle Clayton, Makiyah Keys and CJ Simbiri made the cut for the Meet of Champions at Lehigh, and CJ even advanced to the prestigious Nike Indoor Nationals. These achievements helped build confidence and set the tone for what can be achieved.However, the 2025-26 season also has its own set of challenges. With a former assistant coach departing, McFarland and Hill are recalibrating what they have. Still, returning members, coupled with

After a strong 26-4 season last year, the Delaware County Christian School boys basketball team is primed and ready to build off that success. Last season, the Knights not only won a district championship but also made a competitive run in the state bracket, proving they can compete with Pennsylvania’s best AA teams. While the graduation of 1,000-point scorers Khamai Orange and Beau Lyren leaves big shoes to fill, confidence remains high as new contributors step into larger roles. “Even though we lost two 1,000-point scorers, we have more contributors stepping up, and our ball movement is great,” senior forward Laverne Sombola noted. “Even though we lost some pieces, we will still be good because we will be a more cohesive unit who knows each other well. All of us can pass, dribble, and shoot.”Furthermore, Head Coach Reggie Parks believes the team’s identity will once again be built on intensity and effort. “We are a hard-nosed, attacking styled defensive team who will push pace o

To say the boys soccer season was successful is an understatement; better stated, it was remarkable.  Not only did they post the best record in school history, going 21-4 and snapping archrival Faith Christian’s regular season win streak spanning back to 2023, but they also accomplished things that no other DC soccer team had done: capturing a District 1A championship.A major storyline of the season was junior midfielder Justin Ma, who led the team with 17 goals and 7 assists. Ma became known for his insane bicycle kick against archrival Faith Christian, snapping their regular season win streak. Reflecting on the season, Ma remarked, “This season filled me with so much joy. I loved playing with every player and we truly built incredible bonds with one another.”The connection among teammates proved true as the Knights claimed the number one seed in the District 1A playoffs with a regular season record of 15-3.

In a match filled with relentless energy and high-intensity moments, the Knights girls battled through regulation and two overtime halves before falling in a heartbreaking penalty shootout. Despite the tough ending, the team’s performance left a lasting mark. “As a new player on the team, the whole team was very welcoming,” shared junior Evie Gray, “and I had my best season so far with 17 goals and first team overall.”From underclassmen stepping into big roles to veterans leading with experience,

The 2025 Delaware County Christian Knights football team’s season came to an end with a regular-season blowout win against Montrose Area High School by the score of 30-6. After going 8-1 in their previous season playing 8-man football, the school decided it was time for the team to move up to an 11-man program in 2025, joining the PIAA’s 1A District I. As a year-one, 11-man program, DC football was not in the Bicentennial League, forcing the Knights to play an independent schedule, which meant any team in the area that had an open game slot for them. Some of these teams included Red Lion Christian Academy (DE), Lansdale Catholic, and Archbishop Carroll High School. Unfortunately, all of these schools compete in much higher classes than the Knights’ 1A program.Even with a difficult schedule, the Knights fought and managed to end the season with an overall record of 4-5, the exact record as Jenkintown’s football team, which competes in the same division as DC.

After losing to the Cougars earlier in the season, the Knights returned with determination. All three singles players secured crucial wins while the first doubles team of Karis Peters and Kaylee Kroll battled through split sets, falling by just two points. “It was an amazing turnaround,” remarked Coach Day Fogarty. “I could not have been prouder of every DC player that day.”Individually, senior Lily Peters delivered a standout season, placing second in the BAL Singles Tournament and earning a spot in districts.

Last season, the team showed major growth. “By the end of the season, we really came together as a team,” says senior captain Sonya Curyto. “One of the teams we lost against badly earlier in the season, we beat 4-1 by the end, which moved us up to be ranked second in the BAL”.So far, this season has been similarly successful. Currently, the girls are 2-1 in the BAL and 3-3 overall. Their matches have been competitive, with their most recent win being against Dock Mennonite Academy. Looking ahead, the girls are very optimistic about the season ahead. “This year will hopefully be a strong year for us,” remarks senior captain Lily Peters. “We have some new freshmen and a bigger team than last year.
