Tappan Zee Athletic Philosophy
Athletics is not an extra-curricular, but a co-curricular activity. The lessons of the classroom do not end when the bell rings at 3pm. Athletics is an extension of the school day with coaches as teachers and the field as the classroom. The lessons taught in this classroom are intended to help our student-athletes become productive, empathetic citizens. Our coaches consider themselves “Double-Goal Coaches”. They strive to win while pursuing the more-important goal of teaching life lessons through sports.
“Success is a fortunate by-product of doing the right thing”
