Choate Day is November 12 in Wallingford...

On Saturday, November 12 our teams head to Wallingford, where they'll run, throw, jump, pass, catch and kick their way to victory.

We'd love to see you there, cheering for the Big Green. There will be no shortage of DA pride, good friends and hot cocoa. Find us under the tent alongside the football field. You can find the Choate campus map here.

Check out the schedule for the day's events and be sure to follow us on twitter @deerfieldteams!

Choate, as you recall, is located at 333 Christian St., Wallingford, CT - yes, the place that smells like burning bacon!

GO BIG GREEN!

Choate Day Details

UPDATE:

It was ugly in the livestream events:

Volleyball CRH 3- DA 0
Football: CRH 45 - DA 0

I think we fared better in soccer and FH...

Well, that's it from Denver...Maybe my day will be saved by the Broncos tripping up against winless Raiders...
