Bridgton Academy Today Summer—Fall 2024
Bridgton Academy Today is produced biannually as the official publication of Bridgton Academy and is distributed to alumni, parents of alumni, and friends of the Academy. We welcome your feedback and encourage you to reach out to us at Alumni@BridgtonAcademy.org.
Greetings from Bridgton!
The Class of 2024 and I shared a very special year. They were the heartbeat of campus and embraced the Wolverine spirit from day one. As I shared at Commencement, I did not expect how in just one year I would be humbled by my feelings, proud of each of the young men, and grateful for the opportunity to have shared their one year journey.
I have spent my life going to school. I love being an educator and having a career in education because the learning and growth goes both ways. While I hope that the Class of 2024 learned at least a few things from me—I know that I certainly learned from them!
This class was a constant reminder of the positive engagement that is spurred on by competition. The Class of 2024 were competitive about everything— both on and off the fields, pitch, court, and ice. Dorm wars, cooking contests, 3v3 basketball, even having the cleanest room all garnered the competitive spirit within our Wolverines. It is the same energy and drive that motivated this class to do the work and embrace the hard moments. The expression “A rising tide lifts all boats” fits the culture at Bridgton. I saw first hand the Class of 2024 rise up, first as individuals and then as a shared community.
Within the unique structure of Bridgton Academy's one year program, this class taught me the undeniable power of urgency. The majority of students come to Bridgton with a one year time limit to chase their dreams. The Bridgton Academy faculty are ALL IN on supporting and challenging these students.
Approaching every class, every practice, and even every interaction with urgency quickly and rapidly stimulates growth. If you want to get better, faster, stronger—academically, athletically, and personally— approach everything with this sense of urgency and hold onto it. The Class of 2024 was able to practice this urgency every day here at Bridgton Academy. And, guess what? They got better, faster, and stronger in all aspects of their Bridgton experience.
Lastly, the Class of 2024 taught me, unequivocally, that the world is a better place with Wolverines in it. I am proud to serve and lead Bridgton Academy in this great state of Maine!
The Class of 2024 will always be my first class at Bridgton Academy. We shared this one year together and that will never change. However, I am equally excited to be starting this new (and urgent!) journey with the Class of 2025 and learning all that they have to teach me!
Diana J. Gleeson Head of School
During the last week of regular classes for the Class of 2024, the Academy community held a truly special event on campus. On Thursday, April 25, a field day was hosted in North Bridgton for area students in grades K-12 who would soon be participating in the Special Olympics. Organized by Director of Student Life, Kate Tucker, and Director of Athletics, Aaron Izaryk, the event provided a wonderful volunteer opportunity for many Academy students and staff.
The weather couldn’t have been better as Bridgton welcomed students from the local Lakes Region school district to campus. The sun was shining as the kids arrived, greeted by over 100 Bridgton students and staff who formed a cheering tunnel to welcome the Special Olympians onto the field.
The local school district brought fifty Special Olympians and twenty “Team Lakers” (older students who help with the Unified Sports athletes). Every school from the Academy’s area public district was represented at this event. After students headed through the Wolverine tunnel, they rotated through nine stations at their leisure. Stations included a
target throw, a foot race with streamer finish line, a soccer goal kick, an obstacle course, a distance throw, and laundry basket basketball. Academy students either helped to run each station or stood by cheering on the athletes.
A district employee who participated in the event expressed, “Thank you so much to the entire Bridgton Academy community for putting on an amazing day for our Special Olympians and welcoming us into your world. We were incredibly blessed to have been included in such an amazing opportunity. There was not a single thing that was missed to support our students. I have heard so much positive feedback about the Bridgton students and how they interacted with our students who have disabilities. Everyone felt valued, appreciated, and empowered. I cannot say enough amazing things about all that you did for us.”
Bridgton Academy is proud to annually recognize members of our faculty at Commencement with the Andrew F. Staub ’04 Faculty Professional Development Award. This award provides recognition to a teacher or advisor who is a consistently positive role model to students, as well as an accessible, helpful instructor, and a passionate leader within the Academy. Students nominate their choices for this award, with the final recipients chosen through a voting process. Our congratulations to the 2024 Andrew F. Staub Award recipients: Mrs. Jamie Izaryk, Dean of Academics, and Mr. Ryan Connors, math teacher, dorm head of Mass Hall, and assistant lacrosse coach.
In addition to the Staub Award, at the end of the year the Academy presents the Cole-Dyer Award, given to two faculty and staff members who exemplify the remarkable traits exhibited by Susan Cole, retired faculty, and the late Betty Dyer, also a former faculty member. During their careers, both women consistently displayed a high degree of professionalism, passion for their work, a desire for excellence, and loyalty to the school, as well as a personal and professional commitment to those with whom they worked.
This year, Academy staffers Tim Atwood and Charlene Davis were both recognized with this award.
Tim has served in many roles during the years he’s worked at Bridgton, including teacher, dorm parent, coach, and Dean of Students. “Tim's career as a teacher and our Dean of Students are shining
examples of professionalism, marked by a tireless dedication to his craft,” shared one staff member who nominated Tim. “He approaches each part of his job with an infectious passion and unwavering commitment to excellence, instilling in his students how to be the best version of themselves that extends far beyond the classroom.”
Charlene Davis was also nominated and selected by the Academy staff in honor of her hard work and commitment. Charlene has worked on Bridgton’s culinary team for seven years. These words were offered about Charlene in one of the nominations put forth by a colleague: “Charlene is one of the brightest spots in my day. She's fantastic—wonderful to the students and amazing to the staff children. Charlene just makes the Goldsmith Dining Hall that much happier.”
Congratulations to Tim and Charlene on being this year’s Cole-Dyer Award recipients.
On Thursday, May 30, members of the Bridgton Academy faculty headed south to take part in the Boston Evening with Bridgton Academy event. The night was a great success, filled with camaraderie, laughs, and good food, combined with the company of many Bridgton alumni, parents of alumni, and friends. Several long-time Bridgton faculty were in attendance including Mr. Gately, Coach Austin, Coach Burgess ’88, Mr. Lepage, Coach Daley ’77, and Coach Lesure, which made for quite the honor roll crew.
Alumni came out from many decades, dating as far back as the 1950s, to as recent as 2021 graduates. Members of the Class of 1988 had a great showing, hosting a mini-reunion of sorts that included former roommates and teammates reconnecting for the first time in many years. Mr. Gately gathered a sizable group of Wolverine Ski Team alumni in attendance
who shared some memories from their time on the hill.
Head of School Diana J. Gleeson was excited to provide a brief program for guests, including updates from campus and initiatives currently underway at the Academy. Bridgton’s Board of Trustees was also well represented at the event, with Board President Mr. Vic DiGravio sharing welcoming remarks.
It was wonderful to see everyone who took part in this event and we look forward to hosting similar gatherings in the future.
Bridgton Academy was proud to present the 2024 Ray T. McDonald Jr. Distinguished Service Award to alumnus and Academy trustee, Mr. David Colella ’71.
The Ray T. McDonald Jr. Award was established in 1986 by the Bridgton Academy Board of Trustees and recognizes "meritorious service to Bridgton over a continuing period.” The recipient is someone who maintains a close connection with the Academy and has, through their work and volunteerism, truly set themselves apart in their service in support of Bridgton.
Colella was a two-year student at Bridgton Academy, attending for both his junior and senior years of high school back in 1970 and 1971. He participated in many sports and activities during his time at Bridgton and, upon his graduation, was presented with the Academy’s Citizenship Award.
After college, David embarked on a wonderful and successful career in the hospitality industry. Even with his busy work schedule, to this day he dedicates many hours to support nonprofit organizations near and dear to his heart. The Academy is honored to be among those causes.
David has distinguished himself on many fronts in support of the Academy. For over a decade now, David has supported Bridgton by hosting our Student Welcome Reception every summer at The Colonnade Hotel in Boston, where he serves as the Vice President and Managing Director.
Additionally, David joined the Bridgton Academy Board of Trustees in 2018. In this role, David has served on various committees and brings his leadership, calm demeanor, and diverse expertise to each and every meeting.
Our heartfelt congratulations to Mr. David Colella ’71 for this well-deserved recognition inspired by his tremendous pride and commitment in all things Bridgton Academy.
On Sunday, July 21, over 70 students and their families from Bridgton’s Class of 2025 gathered in Boston for the Academy’s Welcome Reception. Held at the beautiful Colonnade Hotel, this event is a kickoff to the year before students officially arrive on campus.
Highlights of the reception included words of welcome from Head of School Diana J. Gleeson and Jayson Paré, Bridgton’s Director Recruiting and Enrollment Management. Class of 1997 alumnus and Academy trustee Peter Van Haur shared with guests about how his year at Bridgton—taking the road less traveled— has truly made all the difference in his life.
For both students and parents, the afternoon also featured interactive moments as well. The Class of 2025 participated in several ice breaker games, providing the chance to begin bonding with their soon-to-be classmates. Parents heard from a panel comprised of Bridgton faculty and alumni, then had the chance to offer up their own questions about the upcoming year. A Bridgton trivia contest for students
took place as the event came to a close.
A very special thank you to The Colonnade Hotel for hosting this wonderful event and a shoutout to Nadeem Rizk ’24 for volunteering to speak on the faculty panel.
For over forty years, Bridgton Academy has been proud to offer our College Articulation Program (CAP) to literally thousands of students. CAP courses, offered in partnership with select colleges and universities, allow our students to earn transferrable college credits for coursework completed at the Academy.
This year, Bridgton Academy is excited to add a new university partner to this program, the University of Maine at Farmington. “We are always looking to expand and diversify our CAP offerings and partnerships,” shared Dean of Academics, Jamie Izaryk. “Any new partnership starts with an initial outreach or connection. Once the CAP partnership appears to be beneficial and plausible, we connect our specific teaching faculty member with their teaching faculty and directors. This year, we are excited to announce that Ms. Isabel Neal, one of our English instructors, is now approved to teach UMF’s Creative Writing course, which will be offered to Bridgton students this spring.”
The Academy currently provides twelve unique CAP courses to our student body through partnerships with Saint Joseph’s College of Maine, University of Southern Maine, and now, University of Maine Farmington. On average, approximately two-thirds of any given Bridgton class will enroll in a CAP course, allowing these students the opportunity to experience the rigor of a college class while in the supportive academic environment surrounding them at Bridgton.

We recently had the opportunity to sit down with the Academy’s newest head coach, John Desmond. Over the summer, John was announced as the Ed Robson ’50 Head Hockey Coach and has enthusiastically jumped into his new role. Having served as the assistant coach for Wolverine hockey over the past two seasons, John has a great working knowledge of Bridgton hockey and our unique position in the marketplace. We invite you to read on to learn a bit more about Coach Desmond, our new Ed Robson ’50 Head Hockey Coach.
Can you share a bit about yourself and your background?
I’m from Lemont, Illinois, a suburb outside of Chicago. I grew up with three older siblings, Robbie, Emily, and Danny, who have played a huge part in shaping me into who I am today, along with my parents, too.
My interests are mostly traveling, hiking, staying active, and definitely snowboarding now that I’m out here in Maine.
I’ve always worked in sports and recreation. When I was in high school, my first job was working in my town’s athletic facility. Since graduating from college, I’ve spent the past few summers at Camp Winadu in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, where I’ve been the head of their roller hockey program for boys ages 8 to16.
For the past two years, I have worked as the Assistant Hockey Coach here at Bridgton Academy, and now I’m
very excited about taking over as the Ed Robson ’50 Head Hockey Coach.
Was hockey a big part of your childhood?
Growing up, I took up playing hockey when I was six or seven. I started off playing roller hockey out in the street with my older brothers and cousins. We would play all the time in front of my parent’s house. My first season of competitive hockey was in second grade when I played on a roller hockey team. In third grade, I entered the world of ice hockey, and have played every year since then up until graduating from college.
I love absolutely everything about the game of hockey. I love the competitive nature of the sport, and even things like the sound of blades crunching the ice. I think hockey is the perfect game. Maybe what I love most about it is how much of a part of my life this sport is. Growing up, my ideal day was playing street hockey after school until the Chicago Blackhawks were on. Every intermission, I would go out and shoot hockey pucks in my parents’ garage. This was my whole childhood; I was really hooked from day one.
Do a lot of ice hockey players also play roller hockey?
There are roller hockey leagues, they are just not as popular in the United States compared to ice hockey. For most players, roller hockey is more of a hobby than their primary competitive sport. I always played growing up, dragging nets to empty parking lots and so forth. I think for skill development, roller hockey is even better than practicing ice hockey. The gravel is bumpy, you are working with imperfections, and your equipment is way worse than what you use in regular ice hockey. I always had to play against my older brothers who were much better than I was. This forced me to improve a lot. When you don’t have ice or ice access, you take the next best thing–which was roller hockey for me. As a kid, I would literally eat dinner with rollerblades on my feet and then just roll down the hill to play again when I was done. I was a little obsessed.
When I came to Bridgton Academy, I was shocked by how many of our hockey players didn’t have any history with roller hockey. Where I grew up, everyone I played ice hockey with always played roller hockey in their free time. During my first few years here at Bridgton, some of the players had to actually buy rollerblades to be able to play in our off season.
Can you share a bit about your collegiate hockey experience?
After high school, I knew I was ready for college. I was recruited by some junior teams and looked into this path a bit, but I knew I didn’t really want to pursue the junior route. I had done a bit of research about college club hockey. My U18 coaches were very helpful in talking to me about the differences between NCAA hockey and college club hockey.
I ended up applying to three colleges that all had Division I club hockey. Because I was accepted to all three, it didn’t really make my decision process easier. I toured Western Michigan University first and was immediately sold. Not only did I love the school, I was fortunate that they also had a great club hockey program. I graduated with my degree in Sports Management and a minor in Journalism.
During my first semester at school, I was a starter on the Division III club hockey program. I figured as an eighteen-year-old freshman, that this DIII team was a good fit for me. Early on, I was named as the team captain, which was unique for a freshman. Six games into the season, the Division I club coach asked me to come up and join their team. Besides my six games on the DIII club team, I spent my four years playing Division I club hockey. It was honestly amazing. The level of competition was very good.
I can confidently say that I think the top twenty American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA) teams currently could fit in just fine with middle-of-thepack NCAA DIII schools. With club hockey growing so much in popularity, the NCAA has hosted some exhibition games of club hockey teams against DI and DIII NCAA teams, and club hockey has beaten teams at both levels. Some of the top club teams are starting to overtake the NCAA teams. Club also offers some tremendous school options outside of NCAA and thousands of people will still come to watch your games.
A few years ago, the skill differentiation between club and NCAA was miles apart. Nowadays, there is a large trickle-down effect from NCAA hockey. Before, if you played high school hockey and went to college, you could automatically play club hockey. Now, you can’t just walk on to any club team. The top club teams are now recruiting high-end junior players.
What makes a good hockey player and what do you look for in a recruit?
I think there are a lot of players out there who love the flash of offense or play just to score goals. I look for players who play to win games. I look for intensity before the game even starts. You need to treat warmups the same as you’d treat a third-period time out. I look for players who win puck battles. It’s not all about putting up numbers; if you are a good
teammate and if you block shots, those are good things. It’s not only about the offensive flash.
I watch players off the ice as well. How do you interact with your parents in the lobby, how do you treat your teachers, how well do you communicate? Character off the ice is equally as important as on-ice skill.
In my opinion, hockey is the ultimate team sport. For example, in football, you can kind of hide sometimes in an offensive scheme. Basketball can play their starters for ninety percent of the game. Hockey is a sport where you can’t really do that. A great hockey team is one where all twenty players know their role and execute it in consistent fashion each and every night. The bond of the team needs to be strong both on and off the ice for the team to succeed as well.
How would you describe the hockey landscape for players after Bridgton, and how do you help to find your players their best future homes?
I think the hockey landscape is definitely a little intimidating, but also very exciting. There are so many routes to go, and none of them are right or wrong. It’s up to the individual. For me, junior hockey was not the option I wanted. I wanted to go to college as an eighteen-year-old. Other players may want to try to get to the highest level of play possible and pursue juniors for this outcome.
With our Bridgton players, I am looking forward to working with each of them on defining their personal goals. It’s important to figure out what type of school they want to go as a starting point and to make sure they understand all of the options of hockey that they have.
What are some of the first things you want to do with the Bridgton hockey program?
The first thing I want to do is make our name more recognizable. What we do at Bridgton is so special and unique, yet not enough people know about it. I’m looking forward to recruiting players from far and wide and also scheduling games outside of New England as well.
What is unique to you about the Bridgton hockey experience?
Our whole program is completely one of a kind. You can’t play for a strictly postgraduate hockey team anywhere else in the world. Brotherhoods like this are hard to find, and Bridgton hockey is certainly not a common opportunity.
You are known for doing a lot of individual skill work with your players—do you see that continuing as a head coach?
As Head Coach, I am definitely continuing to prioritize individual work and training sessions. I encourage my players to come up and skate when they have a break in their academic day and work with me individually or in small group sessions. We use that time to target specific training that relates to just that player and areas that they are working to improve upon. I also like to make team skill sessions a part of my regular practice plan. They break up the common team practice and allow the team to work on valuable skills. I don’t think you will ever hear a Bridgton hockey player saying they don’t have enough ice access.
In a few words, how would players describe you? Fair, goal-orientated, and adaptable are all words I would hope that players would use to describe me.
How can Bridgton hockey alumni and fans of Wolverine hockey support you in your new role?
To begin with, I would say by showing up. It’s really special when people come out to support our games, whether at home in Chalmers Ice Arena or away. Almost every single away game last season had at least one alumnus attend, which is so important because that really illustrates to our current players how strong the brotherhood is. I hope to see that tradition of support continue.
What’s one thing people would be surprised to learn about you?
In my free time, I play the guitar and the ukulele. I also have a large vinyl record collection. I’m really into folk and singer/songwriter music.
What are your favorite sports teams?
Chicago Blackhawks all the way. And go White Sox, Bulls, and Bears.

In August of 2020, Hayden Moses arrived in North Bridgton. As it was for so many others during that time, life was filled with uncertainty. Hayden had torn his ACL during his senior year of high school and his college choices were just not what he had hoped they would be. A year at the Academy seemed like the most certain thing for Hayden: there was the prospect of a modified football season that fall and the chance to attend classes in person, a bit of a rare opportunity during the pandemic era. The ultimate goal for Hayden was to open more college doors and ideally pursue his dream of playing collegiate football.
Hayden wholeheartedly jumped into life at the Academy. In the natural world, Wolverines are known for their cleverness and resourcefulness; in his world at Bridgton, Hayden adopted that exact Wolverine mindset. The year was anything but normal, but the football team trained all season with Coach Rick Marcella, even managing to compete in three games that fall. Hayden participated in every activity that was made available to him at the Academy, and even decided to dust off his lacrosse stick in the spring to play and continue to train athletically. That May, the
Academy was able to hold our first in-person event in sometime, Commencement outside on the turf field. As the Wolverines gathered for year-end recognitions, Hayden was recognized with the Addie M. Chadbourne Award, the highest honor annually given to the student with the top GPA in the graduating class.
The next stop for Hayden was Grinnell College, a Division III school in Iowa. His career on the gridiron was now moving full steam ahead. A freshman starting quarterback, Hayden continued the positive trajectory he had begun at Bridgton, setting two single-game passing records for the school and racking up a great first college season. As Hayden reflected, “The experience at Grinnell was fabulous. If I had to go back and do anything differently, I truly wouldn’t.” Ultimately though, Hayden had his sights set on playing Division I football. When the opportunity presented itself for him to transfer to Vanderbilt, it was one that Hayden knew he did not want to pass up.
After being accepted at Vanderbilt, Hayden wasted no time contacting the coach there about playing football. He shared some game film and was accepted as a
walk-on. By the spring of his sophomore year, Hayden began getting some playing time, continuing to work hard in true Wolverine fashion.
Now entering his senior year season, Hayden can be seen on the sidelines wearing #18 and signaling plays for Vanderbilt’s offense. He is enjoying every minute of his fulfilled dream of playing at the Division I level. Some of the highlights for Hayden over the past couple of years have included a big upset over Florida, as well as the chance to play at UNLV in their huge stadium.
Hayden looks back to his year at Bridgton and is grateful today for all that he experienced at the Academy. This past summer, Hayden completed an exciting internship as part of his business major at Vanderbilt. While it’s hard for him to fathom that the sport he started playing at just five years ago will be coming to an end after this year, Hayden looks forward to what the future holds for him following his college graduation this spring.
Hayden shared some words of advice for future Wolverines: “God’s delays are not God’s denials. Just because you have to wait for something doesn’t mean it’s not going to happen for you eventually. Sometimes you really do have to wait and allow yourself to grow in the meantime.”
These words are the exact advice that Hayden has followed over the past few years, earning achievements due to his patience, hard work, and tenacity in pursuing his goals.
Hailing from Oakland, California, Reed Shaw traveled well over 3,000 miles from home to pursue his postgraduate year at Bridgton Academy. Reed worked hard to achieve his goals at Bridgton, and is now playing Division I lacrosse for Hampton University in Virginia. Shortly before his Commencement, Reed reflected on some of his Bridgton memories and advice for young Wolverines.
How did you find out about Bridgton, and what was your adjustment like to life at the Academy?
I’m from California and I first found out about Bridgton from one of my travel team lacrosse coaches. He is a 2018 graduate. Getting adjusted to Bridgton wasn’t as hard as I thought it was going to be. The Academy offers a lot of activities and ways for you to get to know people and do things off campus.
What is one of your favorite things about Bridgton? I like all the activities that the Academy offers. During school, there are things like Math Lab and Study Hall. When you’re not in class, the outside activities were
really good. The hardest thing for me was getting used to being so far from home, which meant I couldn’t just go home on the weekends. All the activities helped a lot with that though.
What were some of your goals coming into Bridgton?
My main goal was to become a better student and get ready to play college lacrosse. In high school, I didn’t do a lot of my homework or study for tests. With Study Hall at Bridgton, I got all my homework done and I studied for all my tests. I now know how to get prepared, and I think that’s going to help with the next few years.
What was your academic experience like at the Academy?
The academic experience here is what you want it to be. If you go to class, do all your work, do everything, then your academic experience is going to be really positive. Use the resources that Bridgton gives you. The Math Lab, the Writing Center, those are tools that are going to help you to become a better student.
What is the energy on campus like?
I feel like the energy is great. The whole school supports all of the teams. We have a student Instagram account that posts about the games and we all come out and cheer on the teams.
What is your favorite Bridgton memory that you’ve made?
My favorite memory has to be a Mass Hall one. We won the dodgeball championship, that was a big one.
What do you do like to do in your free time?
In the winter, I skied a lot because Bridgton offers free skiing at Pleasant Mountain, which was nice. When the snow melted, I usually just hit the field and practiced with a couple of teammates. Sometimes, I put some shots up at the basketball court, too.
Who is one of your role models, and why?
My dad has been there for me every step of the way. The reason I made it to Bridgton was because of him. He supports me, believes in me, and has gotten me to where I am today.
Can you share a little bit about Bridgton Lacrosse?
The Bridgton Academy lacrosse team is great in general. The coaches are talented and add in a lot of things to make sure we have fun in practice. We have two seasons for lacrosse here, the fall and spring season. The fall season is where you get your exposure,
you’re playing for yourself and trying to get recruited. We play in a bunch of different tournaments and showcases. And then, in the spring, we are playing as a team and we play to win. We compete against a lot of good teams and prep schools during that time.
What are three words you would use to describe Bridgton?
Peaceful, community, and challenging.
What is one thing you will miss about Bridgton? I’m definitely going to miss a lot of the people here. Being with them all day, every day, you realize that these are your brothers. These are your long-time friends.

Shortly before Commencement, we sat down with then soon-to-be-alumni Sebastian “Seb” Miller (Billerica, MA) and Nadeem “Nemo” Rizk (Wakefield, MA). These teammates and friends played soccer during their time at the Academy, and coincidentally, have continued as collegiate teammates at Trinity College in Connecticut this fall.
Sebastian was a two-year student at the Academy, completing both his senior and postgraduate year of study, while Nadeem attended Bridgton as a postgraduate student. We invite you to read on for some insights from these young men that they shared as they wrapped up their year in North Bridgton.
How did you find out about Bridgton, and what was your adjustment like to life at the Academy?
Sebastian: I first learned about Bridgton after being recruited from a soccer ID camp. Getting adjusted to Bridgton wasn’t too hard, but it was a bit difficult at
first because I’d never really been away from home before. One of the biggest things for me to learn was time management.
Nadeem: I also learned about Bridgton at an ID camp and from talking to the Academy’s coach. The hardest thing for me to adjust to was living far from home. I’ve always been really close with my parents, so being away from them for the first time was actually very hard.
What is one of your favorite things about Bridgton?
Sebastian: My goals were to improve my grades and get ready to go to college. I also wanted to feel ready athletically, getting stronger and just being a better soccer player. From the two years that I’ve been here, Bridgton Academy helped me to achieve my goals in all aspects.
Nadeem: I’d say my main goal coming into Bridgton Academy was to get recruited to play soccer in
college. For me, this included getting physically bigger, lifting, and trying to stay away from injuries. Bridgton definitely helped me work towards these goals through the support of the staff. Coach Pearson, my soccer coach, and Coach West, our Strength and Conditioning Coach, really pushed me to my higher-level goals of college soccer.
What was your academic experience like at the Academy?
Sebastian: My academic experience here has been really good. I’ve improved all of my grades, which helped me to get into the college that I wanted to get into.
Nadeem: My academic experience was very different compared to regular high school. The importance of time management at Bridgton is very critical as you have to attend your classes and turn in your work on time. I feel like Bridgton puts a lot of emphasis on time management, and I think that’s one of the things that has helped me the most. Taking CAP courses for college credit are really beneficial for your future as well.
What is the energy on campus like?
Sebastian: The energy is great. It feels more like a family and a community. Everyone is together as a whole.
Nadeem: I’d describe it as very vibrant. We all want to see each other succeed no matter what sport or activities we participate in. Even the staff and coaches—everyone on campus wants to see you succeed.
What is your favorite Bridgton memory that you’ve made?
Sebastian: My favorite memory was spending preseason with the soccer team. I made a ton of memories during this time that I know I will always cherish.
Nadeem: I think my favorite memory was creating a relationship with my roommate. He’s probably my best friend for life now. We had one moment during a snowstorm where we went sledding and it was one of the best days I’ve had in a long time.
What do you do like to do in your free time?
Sebastian: I like to get in an extra lift, or just hang out with my team.
Nadeem: One of the coolest things to do at Bridgton in your free time is to go to the Mountain. We have Pleasant Mountain very close to us. I learned how to snowboard when I was ten but didn’t have a chance to do that for a long time. Being able to have that opportunity to constantly go in the winter was really cool.
Who is one of your role models, and why?
Sebastian: Probably my dad. He is always there for me for everything, whether academically or athletically, or just in life. He always tries to come to my games, even if there is something going on in his life.
Nadeem: At Bridgton, one of my biggest role models was the Strength and Conditioning Coach, Coach West. When I finished my soccer season, I was in a bundle of injuries. Coach West was with me every day. He spent
a lot of time with me helping me to get healthy and it was a great experience. I learned a lot from him.
What do you want to do after Bridgton?
Sebastian: After Bridgton, I am going to Trinity College. I plan to strive as much there as I did here and hope to go into finance after that.
Nadeem: After Bridgton, I also plan on attending Trinity College where I will play soccer and major in Computer Science.
What is one thing you will miss about Bridgton?
Sebastian: One thing I will definitely miss is the brotherhood. While everyone is doing their own thing, we are all here for the same reason. Everyone wants to see everyone succeed.
What advice would you give to an incoming Bridgton student?
Sebastian: Make the most out of every opportunity given to you.
Nadeem: One piece of advice I’d give is stay on top of your work and your training. It’s important not to fall behind; if you do, a lot of things can pile up. Another important thing is to take advantage of all the opportunities given. Utilize your college counselor, your advisor, your teachers, and your coaches. They are all here to see you succeed.
Note: Bridgton Academy was fortunate to have Nadeem be part of this summer’s Student Welcome Reception for the Class of 2025. He spoke on the question and answer panel, sharing experiences from his year with the newest group of Wolverines and their families.
