History continues Friday when Christ School and Asheville School play "The Game" for the 98th time here at Fayssoux Field. 

Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.

A good weekend for Christ School basketball turned great on Sunday.  

Jo Ahart ’25 became the team’s third senior to make a college commitment. The 6-foot-9 forward from Greer, S.C., shared through his Instagram that he will play at the next level for his home state's Newberry College. 

DAVIDSON, N.C. – Saturday was an early statement game for Christ School varsity basketball. 

The Greenies left enough said at the Phenom Tip-Off Classic, drubbing Carmel Christian, 74-42.

Asheville School Week Part 2!

As announced in his morning’s assembly, here are the theme days and notable events planned for the final week before Thanksgiving Break. It all culminates with next Friday’s 98^th playing of “The Game” between the Greenies and Asheville School, here at 7 p.m. 

GREENVILLE, S.C. – Turnovers, a little foul trouble, and the idiosyncrasy of playing with a shot clock in the team’s first road game were stacked against Christ School varsity basketball on Tuesday. 

The Greenies overcame it all and more for a quality win over another Nike Elite program. Trailing 41-40 with 7:30 remaining, Christ School went on a 18-2 run to finish off a 58-43 win at Legacy Early College. 

Monday was an afternoon of firsts for Christ School wrestling. 

Owen Gillespie ’26 had his hand raised as the first individual winner of the Greenies’ first team match of any kind since 2017. 

Jumping out to a 14-0 lead was just the beginning for Christ School varsity basketball Friday night. The Greenies one-upped themselves by scoring the first 16 points of the second half, too. 

An opening night crowd was thrown into a tizzy and every player saw time at some point in a 64-24 home win over Covenant Day that couldn’t have been more thorough. 

November would normally mean the end of many football seasons at Christ School, but we play on!

Congratulations to Jonathan Reece ’25 on his verbal commitment to Caldwell Community College baseball!

Cancel culture was in full effect Friday night.

Congratulations to Davis Jones ’25, who has committed to play baseball for Sewanee: The University of the South!

Playoff football returns to Fayssoux Field next Friday. 

Football became something more than football these last four weeks for Christ School players and coaches. 

A game became an escape from the reality going on all around them. A field 100 yards long and 50 yards wide became a sanctuary from all the fallen trees, downed power lines, and displaced families. 

CARY – Sophomores Brooks Barbee ’27 and Dallas Reeves ’27 broke through with all-state performances Friday, meaning a level of personal satisfaction and medals as the ultimate take-home souvenir. 

Christ School cross country will grow from every positive at the NCISAA 4-A meet after a season that was badly fractured by Hurricane Helene.

Christ School varsity soccer has been awarded the No. 1 seed for the playoffs, which means homefield advantage throughout.
