Archmere's 2011 valedictorian, Chris McCord, received the Princeton University Class of 1916 Cup as the senior varsity athlete of highest academic standing at Princeton's Class of 2015 Commencement. The award, which was given by the Class of 1916 on the occasion of its 50th reunion, is presented to the senior varsity letter winner with the highest academic standing.

Princeton's online publication, The News At Princeton, writes: McCord, an operations research and financial engineering major, is a four-year letter-winner on the sprint football team. He served as one of the team's captains during the past two seasons. He was a first-team College Sprint Football League selection as a junior, the same year he made 35 receptions, the second-highest single-season total in program history. He was a second-team College Sprint Football League selection as a sophomore and senior, and he was named an Academic All-Ivy League honoree this past fall.
