Christ School Athletic Director Eric Thorp '01 announced Thursday the appointment of Matt Cioce '13 as Head Varsity Basketball Coach.

For just the second time in school history, the Greenies basketball finished as the state runner-ups. Christ School finished as the runner ups in 2006, and on Saturday, after an amazing close the season, the Greenies fell to Greensboro Day School, 65-53 in the 4A NCISAA State Championship.

The JV basketball team defeated Oakbrook Academy last night, 42 to 18. Nathaniel Carson lead the team with 9 points but overall, several Greenies had big games both offensively and defensively.

Though the Greenies started slowly in the first half, they were tied 21-21 at the half. Great defensive play in the second half led the Christ School JV to a 49-42 victory over Wesleyan Christian Academy on the road.

Rest assured, whenever there is a family gathering in Kingsport, Tenn., the one-on-one games between the Halvorsen brothers can still get as intense as ever.
