Roxbury Latin has an extremely strong athletic program.
They offer 10 sports and 9 out of their 10 teams posted winning records in the ISL this year. RL won the ISL tennis and track titles in 2012 (back to back in tennis), and are consistently at or near the top of the league in soccer, X country, Wrestling and baseball. Roxbury Latin's Basketball team is now quite strong and their Lacrosse program has improved to a very competitive level. Football is steadily among the league's top half. In fact, hockey is the only one of the ten sports where RL is in the bottom half of the ISL and in that sport, they remain at the league's bottom.
Roxbury Latin School was created in 1645.
