Eleven Academy Seniors Commit to Compete at the Collegiate Level

Wednesday afternoon marked a milestone moment at Albany Academy as the community gathered to honor 11 more members of the Class of 2026 who have officially committed to continue their athletic careers at the collegiate level.

The Upper School community, along with families and coaches, gathered in Caird Chapel to celebrate the accomplishments of these student-athletes who will go on to compete at the NCAA Division I, II, and III levels. With commitments that reflect a range of sports and colleges, this group showcases the depth, talent, and tradition of excellence within Academy athletics.

Nationally, only seven percent of graduating classes go on to compete at the collegiate level. The Albany Academy Class of 2026 is shattering that benchmark — with 25 student-athletes committing to NCAA opportunities (read about the fall commitments here), fully 25% of their class will compete in college. It's a testament to the talent and dedication of these athletes, and it puts this year among the highest participation rates in recent Academy history.

Below is the list of spring collegiate signees and their next destinations:

Congratulations to the Class of 2026 and Go Academy!
