Nearly a dozen St. Stephen’s athletes have been selected for elite national squads in soccer, field hockey, basketball, lacrosse and futsal.

Eleven outstanding St. Stephen’s student-athletes have earned one of the highest honors, securing spots on national teams and invitations to national team camps in soccer, field hockey, basketball, lacrosse and futsal. They will represent the United States, Mexico and the Cayman Islands.

“It is extraordinary to see such a high concentration of young talent within a single school community,” said St. Stephen’s Athletic Director Jon McCain. 

National teams select high school athletes through a multi-stage process that includes scouting top-tier high school tournaments and evaluating players on skill, speed, agility, versatility and character. These athletes have been representing an elite level of competition in their respective sports. The recognition brings prestige, advanced training opportunities and increased visibility to college recruiters and professional scouts, strengthening their prospects for collegiate scholarships and beyond.

“Competing at the national team level is a testament to their individual work ethic and the elite competitive culture we strive to foster in our Varsity programs,” said McCain. “They bring back a level of experience and leadership that elevate Spartan athletics across programs.”
