DA Athletics Hosts Successful First ‘Durham Academy Tip-Off Classic’
Last weekend, basketball teams from Cary Academy, Charlotte Country Day School and the O’Neal School joined the Cavaliers in the inaugural four-school, eight-team showcase! The Cavaliers boys and girls teams faced the Charlotte Country Day Buccaneers on Friday and The O’Neal School Falcons on Saturday. Though going a combined 1–3, the Cavs were part of a great kick-off to their seasons. Excitement is sure to follow the rest of the way!
