Georgetown Day School is pleased to announce that we will be hosting the Ben Cooper Memorial Tournament at our wonderful HIGH SCHOOL CAMPUS on May 9th?, 2015. Ben Cooper was "a model student at the Georgetown Day School in Washington, DC, who was well-liked among his colleagues and the faculty. He participated in many activities in school and in service to the community. Because of his enthusiasm and encouragement to promote academic competition among his team members, he was selected as the captain of the varsity team for the 1997-1998 school year. On August 12, 1997, Ben was tragically killed in an automobile accident while returning from his summer job." More information about him and the Ben Cooper Academic Ambassador Awards is available here.
