Athletics

There is nothing quite like the sense of pride one gets from playing for their school. 

BCD's Athletics program is designed to help students develop athletic skills, build self-esteem, and learn team leadership skills. They also explore the meaning of discipline, commitment, resilience, and hard work. The supportive team environment encourages students to be themselves, to take risks, and to embrace the diversity of their team members - all powerful lessons that translate off the court or field.

We hope our student athletes fall in love with a sport and choose to pursue it outside of BCD - either in high school or on various club teams.

Sports Offered
Girls Boys Co-Ed
Basketball Basketball Cross Country
Soccer Soccer Spirit Squad
Volleyball Volleyball Ultimate Frisbee


Students in grades 5th - 8th are eligible to play on all BCD sports teams and BCD has a no cuts policy. Fifth grade participation is based on enrollment, but typically all interested 5th graders are welcomed onto the rosters. Typically 85-90% of 5th - 8th graders play on one or more teams and many play every season. Some athletes balance BCD sport with outside club teams and many go on to play sports in high school.

Our League

BCD is a member of the MSAL (Middle School Athletic Conference) which is comprised of 9 teams. 

BCD, Peak to Peak, Prospect Ridge, Dawson, Faith Christian, Stargate, Flatirons Academy, Global Village Academy, and Jefferson Academy

Meet our Mascot - Kersey

Each year, a middle school student takes on the roll of being our school mascot, Kersey the bulldog.

Kersey is named after BCD’s long time faculty member, Doyle Kersey. Mr. Kersey has been a member of our faculty and staff since our original founding and is considered by many to be the patriarch of our school. Mr. Kersey currently teaches Latin to students in 6th – 8th grade.

Our Athletic Director

Kevin Colón's athletic background began at a young age, where being a well rounded athlete, with an emphasis on lifelong learning, was put at the forefront. He was fortunate through hard work and dedication to receive a scholarship to run cross country and track at Oklahoma State University. While at OSU, he started his coaching journey by studying coaching education and gained expertise through first hand experiences on the team. Athletically, he was a part of an NCAA Championship XC team. After college is where his athletic career really began to blossom. He has since qualified for two US Olympic Marathon Trials.

"I am excited to be able to share my love for sports with the students at BCD. I have a broad range of experiences that have gotten me to this point in my coaching career. While I have had many highs in my career, those did not come without adversity. I have learned the most from those challenging moments and believe every student should receive the best coaching possible. I am confident that the sports offered here at BCD can offer life changing experiences that the students will hold onto for the rest of their lives." - Coach C.
