The nostalgia that kicks in at the front gate is real.

It’s especially apropos to hear Emmett Paradine ’22 describe his return to campus earlier this month with our first Alumni Weekend in two years taking place next weekend.

CHARLOTTE – What a test run. 

From the competition to the course, Saturday became essentially a preview of next month’s N.C. Independent Schools Athletic Association 4-A state meet. Christ School cross country gave every other team fair warning with an equally impressive showing of balance and speed. 

The Greenies comfortably won the Hare & Hounds Invitational with 40 points, defeating last year’s NCISAA 4-A champion Cary Academy (98 points) by virtue of seven runners completing the 3.1-mile McAlpine Creek Park course in under 16 minutes.
