2023 Trinity hosts Track & Field All Comers Meet

By Samantha DePriest

On Saturday, February 25th Trinity Christian School hosted the Track & Field All Comers Meet with 19 schools and over 738 student athletes in attendance. The meet was dedicated to Javier Jenkins who served for 23 years as a staff member at Dominion Christian School. Coach Jenkins is a hero in the eyes of many of our TCS T&F Coaching staff.


Trinity Director of Track & Field and Student Development Coach JP Weaver shares, “Congratulations to each student athlete who is a part of the TCS T&F team.  The coaching staff is motivated about the full effort that resulted in the overall performances in all the jumping, throwing, and running events that were a part of the competition.  The boys and girls teams both finished in the top 3 overall for High School and Middle School.

Additionally, the Lion Nation volunteers deserve a huge round of applause for stepping right in the middle of the experience to make the Lion All-Comers Meet a huge success.  Without the involvement from our volunteers, it's impossible to run an event of this magnitude to be successful from all different angles.  

To have all the coaches, spectators, officials and vendors on campus to participate in the event from start to finish was well worth each minute of the 9 hour event.  Personally, I am grateful for the home meet experience that included having over 730 middle and high school student athletes competing on campus this past weekend.  Not to mention, understanding at times, there were over 1,500 people inside the stadium to be a part of the event! 

We faced some adversity at times which included battling it out with the weather starting on Friday afternoon that was consistent throughout the event.  Adjustments were also made during the meet due to technical difficulties, but each volunteer and official didn't miss a beat to continue running the event.”

Coach Weaver goes on to share, “There is a great amount of positive energy around campus about this sport. It’s a privilege to have the ability to offer student athletes the opportunity to compete at the highest level in a universal sport.

We are excited about the addition of the new Pole Vole Standards and the 40 new hurdles that have been adopted through our ‘Adopt a Hurdle’ program from parents and Lions Club. The new shot put area has been an awesome addition as well.”

The Trinity Track & Field program is growing each year and alumni have gone on to compete at 12 different colleges and universities including: Anderson University, Augusta University, Berry College, Birmingham Southern, Cedarville University, Columbus State University, Covenant College, Crown University, Emmanuel College, Kennesaw State University, Truett-McConnell University, and University of West Georgia.
