Girls Prep Basketball—April 12, 2024

Darrow School names Head Girls Basketball Coach

New Lebanon, NY, April 12, 2024—Darrow School is thrilled to welcome Abigail (Abby) Streeter, who has had an impressive 16-year career in competitive basketball. For the last two years, she has played professionally for teams in Puerto Rico and Japan; before that, she had six years as a Division I player, finishing with a final season at Rutgers University in the Big Ten Conference, a testament to her exceptional skills and dedication. Now, she takes on the role of Head Coach for the Darrow Girls Prep Basketball team. She brings a coaching philosophy that nurtures a supportive and competitive environment and empowers players to realize their full potential. 

Darrow's girls' basketball program is embarking on a momentous journey this year. We are stepping into the highly competitive NEPSAC AA conference for the first time, a move that underscores our team's growth and potential. This conference, renowned as one of the top high school leagues in the country, consistently propels players into Divisions I-III each year. We are thrilled to see our girls rise to this challenge and compete at this elite level. 

"One of the most exciting developments for Darrow Athletics is the recent addition of our Girls Prep Team, which marks an exciting new era for Darrow Basketball," said Athletic Director Kris Magargal. "We are thrilled to welcome Abby to the Darrow family; she has an impressive record and a passion for the game. Her background aligns with our core values of academic integrity, commitment, and competitive excellence necessary to build a great basketball program."

Our basketball programs are deeply committed to the overall well-being of our student-athletes, providing them with comprehensive support on and off the court. They have year-round access to an athletic trainer and strength and conditioning coach who reside on campus, ensuring their physical and mental well-being. We are a community that values the unique contributions of each student-athlete, fostering a culture of inclusivity and respect. 

Darrow School is excited to welcome Abby to the team and looks forward to her leadership bringing growth and success to the Girls Prep Basketball Program and the greater Darrow community.
