Welcome to the Santa Barbara Dons Athletic Website. We have a great tradition of athletic success and we hope that you will become a part of Dons Athletics as a player, cheerleader, manager, or an active spectator. We know that athletics is an important part of high school life, and we hope that you will get involved. We are very proud of our athletic achievements in the past but look toward our future athletes to leave their footprint as a part of an athletic program that believes in hard work, goal setting, and the love of a challenge. Our coaches are dedicated to the student-athletes and their education. At the end of the 2005 season we had eighteen of our 22 teams with a grade point average over 3.0. All ten of our top ten seniors (GPA) this year participated in athletics. We are very proud of their achievements, and they have set the bar for those to follow. Success in the classroom, and success on the playing field are the goals of the Santa Barbara Athletic Department and Athletes. The athletes at Santa Barbara are some of the finest young people you would ever like to know. To follow Santa Barbara Athletics, enter the website below.
