Track Shines on Senior Day


Seniors
Christ School seniors Corey Taylor '21, Painter Richards-Baker '21, Tyler Bell '21, and Drew Redmond '21.

Christ School track paid tribute to its seniors prior to Wednesday’s final home meet. Then the Greenies proceeded to do what they have done all season long – win and win big.

The team stacked up 187.5 points, more than three times as many as runner-up Asheville School (61.5).

Individually, Painter Richards-Baker ’21 (300-meter hurdles, 40.57 seconds) and Jackson Burch ’22 (1,600-meter run, 4:22.86) set school records, and other event winners were Painter (110-meter high hurdles), Drew Redmond ’21 (200-meter dash), Dawson Reeves ‘24 (800-meter run and pole vault), Cooper Perone ‘24 (high jump), and Jack Cross ‘22 (3,200-meter run).

Christ School was the first-place team in the 400, 1,600, and 3,200-meter relays.
