The Tucker-Pitt Cup

9/22/2017

Today's varsity soccer field will host an especially exciting game, the annual Tucker-Pitt Cup. Established by Coach Charlie Blair of Collegiate School and Coach Sean Wetmore of Norfolk Academy, the tradition has been going strong for the past six years. Started in 2011, both coaches wanted to honor the dedication and hard work of both Malcolm U. "Buck" Pitt, Jr. and John H. Tucker, Jr. Mr. Pitt served as Collegiate's Head of School from 1960-1987, while Mr. Tucker served as Headmaster at Norfolk Academy from 1978-2000. Both men exemplified heart and determination, qualities that are continually brought out on the soccer field between the two schools.

Each year since 2011, at the conclusion of the soccer game between the schools, the cup is awarded to the winning team and is showcased in the respective school until the next season's game. Collegiate currently holds the cup. Should there be a tie, it will remain in our possession. Stay tuned for the result of the game today at 4 p.m.!
