Athletics
Sports currently available to Regis students include baseball (on the junior varsity and varsity levels), basketball (on the freshman, junior varsity, and varsity levels), cross country, soccer (on the junior varsity and varsity levels), indoor and outdoor track and field, and volleyball (on the varsity level). The school is a member of the Catholic High School Athletic Association (C.H.S.A.A.). Regis's athletic teams have seen success in recent years, including several City Championships in their division at the junior varsity and varsity levels. In 2005, the year after winning the city championship, the Varsity basketball team won the B division State Federation Championship in Glens Falls, NY, beating the best of the private and public schools of New York. Between 2006 and 2008, the Regis Baseball team, which has played in the A division for only 6 years, finished 3rd, 2nd, and 3rd respectively. This streak of top 3 finishes is a feat no other CHSAA A division school has accomplished since Regis joined the league. Senior Christopher Bates was drafted in the 15th round of the 2010 MLB First-Year Player Draft by the Milwaukee Brewers. Also, in 2009, the varsity Volleyball team won the CHSAA championship over league rival Xaverian and made it to the final again in 2010 in an attempt to defend their title. The volleyball team continued their dominance over the CHSAA in 2011 and 2012, winning the championship each year, and losing just one league match. On February 22, 2013, the Regis Freshman Basketball team won the CHSAA A Division City Championship. The Team had an overall record of 22-3 and was 16-1 in conference play.
Golf and tennis were offered until the 2007-2008 season, and non-competitive tennis is now offered as an extracurricular.
Regis utilizes several athletic fields and complexes, including Central Park, Randall's Island, and the Armory on West 168th Street.
