Athletics

The 2008-2009 athletics season was arguably one of the best in Caesar Rodney High School's 93-year history. The varsity football team, led by high school senior standout Duron Harmon, finished the regular season with only one loss and avenged it in October, as they beat Sussex Central High School for the state title, the school's first in over a decade. The girls' volleyball team made it to the state tournament that fall as well. That winter, the boys' varsity basketball team, led by seniors Bernard Carter, Sam Sanders, and Tyshawn Bell, paced through the regular season and finished runner-up to perennial power William Penn High School. The golf team finished their spring undefeated in match play. The boys' track team, led by its seniors, finished undefeated in the regular season, won the conference title, and finished third in the state tournament. The boy's and girl's cross country teams took Conference Champions in the fall of 2018.
