Athletics

Gilmour's comprehensive athletic program consists of 22 varsity sports and 61 when junior varsity, freshmen, and Middle School teams are included. More than 70 percent of Gilmour’s students participate in at least one sport out of a variety offered—football, baseball, basketball, hockey, track and field, golf, soccer, cross country, tennis, volleyball, swimming, cheerleading, lacrosse and softball. The Boys Prep Hockey Program is consistently ranked among the top in the nation and is a member of the Midwest Prep Hockey League. The 2010-2011 Boys Prep Team, led by first year coach Scott Stirling, won the USA Hockey Mid-American Region Championship and is currently competing for the National Title. This was the first year that the Prep team has competed at Nationals. The Lancers Varsity Football Team has advanced in the playoffs five out of the last eight years.
