The DeMatha Catholic Way

DeMatha Catholic’s strong athletic tradition, which includes both the past and the present, is built on determination, leadership, sportsmanship, and the drive to excel and reach the utmost potential in preparation for the next level. All of DeMatha’s coaches take pride in both the athlete’s evolution while competing in their sport, and in developing them into true DeMatha Gentlemen and Scholars athletically, academically, and in the community.
