Each quarter Bridgton Academy selects two to three athletes who have gone above and beyond - not only on the selected playing field, but also in the classroom and throughout the Bridgton Academy community. This award is appropriately named the “Triple Threat Award,” and is one of Bridgton Academy's highest athletic honors throughout the school year.

One of Bridgton Academy's three Fall 2017 recipients is a member of the soccer program, hailing from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Antonio Terceros-Downey has shown what it means to be a leader on the Bridgton Academy campus, but he is a quiet leader. When asked about his leadership style, Antonio responded “I’ve just been keeping my head down, focusing on my craft, and staying locked in, but I’m glad my hard work can inspire others to do the same.”

On the field Antonio has been an instrumental part in the teams’ success, being part of a majority of the goals scored this season. Antonio’s maturity stands out on campus, and his work ethic is has pushed his teammates to follow his lead. For most of the athletes at Bridgton, playing at the next level is one of their goals; for Antonio he uses his goals to drive him day in and day out. “I feel like a machine and I’m on a mission” he said.

This "machine" is deserving winner of the Triple Threat Award, and Antonio is looking to grow even more, and hoping to lead his teammates and classmates to do great things.

Bridgton Academy’s mission is to provide a program for young men in a unique, one-year postgraduate environment to prepare for the competitive rigors of college and beyond. Bridgton Academy is located in western Maine, in the town of North Bridgton.
