A Spring Athletics Season to Remember at CA

CA Athletics enjoyed another successful season, including an Eastern Independent League (EIL) title, New England Preparatory School Athletic Council (NEPSAC) tournament bids, and a victory over Bancroft School in the fourth annual Spring Cup rivalry event. Student athletes demonstrated Concord Academy’s values of teamwork, good sportsmanship, and competitive grit.
Boys varsity tennis posted another impressive campaign in 2025. The team captured the EIL championship and a NEPSAC tournament bid for the fourth consecutive year. CA earned the No. 1 seed to the NEPSAC tournament and earned a bye to the semifinals where they lost in a closely fought battle to Pingree School. The boys junior varsity tennis team also enjoyed a very successful season posting a 7-1 record.
The girls varsity tennis squad continued their winning ways. CA finished second in the EIL regular season standings and earned its 10th consecutive NEPSAC tournament berth despite being moved into the more competitive Class B level last year. The team earned a No. 8 seed, but could not overcome the powerful No. 1 seed, Kingswood Oxford School, in the quarterfinals.
The varsity all-gender Ultimate Frisbee team enjoyed a stellar campaign. The team posted 16 overall wins, secured a Division 1 NEPSAC tournament seed for only the second time, and finished seventh at the NEPSAC championship, the highest finish in program history.
Varsity softball enjoyed a breakout season. The team secured the program’s first EIL tournament bid since 2018 by winning five of their last six league games. They earned the No. 4 seed, but could not overcome the No.1 seed Portsmouth Abbey in the semifinals.
The girls and boys track and field teams enjoyed another successful season. After strong performances in the regular season meets, both the boys and the girls teams secured a second-place finish at the EIL championships. CA also had several individual EIL champions. Alex Tarantino ’26 in javelin and shot put, Avi Cariens ’25 in pole vault, and Aleki Zdraveski ’26 in high jump. CA track and field wrapped up the season at the NEPSAC Division III Championship meet at East Providence High School. This was the largest NEPSAC meet ever, with over 35 schools and more than 400 student athletes participating. The girls team finished seventh and the boys finished 12th, with 13 CA athletes earning All-NEPSAC honors and Madori Shah ’25 winning a NEPSAC championship in the triple jump.
The varsity baseball team was much improved this season. They posted a winning record and fell just short of earning an EIL bid
The all-gender varsity sailing team once again posted a winning record in the very competitive Mass Bay League (MBL). The team also finished in second place in the B West division.
A young boys varsity lacrosse program improved throughout the season finishing with five wins in their last eight games. The girls varsity lacrosse team was also a very young squad that improved as the season progressed in the ever competitive EIL. Given their youthful rosters, look for these programs to make noise in the EIL in the spring of 2026!
CA’s baseball, tennis, and lacrosse teams traveled to the Bancroft School for the fourth annual Spring Cup rivalry event on April 25. With a sweep of the five games, CA defended the cup in dominant fashion, having won it the past three years. We look forward to hosting Bancroft in spring 2026.
Go Green!
