Tennis
 The NFC Tennis team joined the other Tallahassee schools in the City Championships held at FSU on March 11-13. It was a strong field of tennis teams including Maclay, Florida High, Godby, Leon and Lincoln. Jya Glenn recorded the only singles win in the first round. Allysa Mears was a singles winner in the consolation  division. Others recording wins were Aimee Williams and Lindsey Bembry in singles and Anslee Williams and Sarah Kelly in doubles. Christian Rich fought hard in the consolation semi-finals only to lose in a tie-breaker after a great comeback. As the season winds down, the team looks forward to the District Tournament at Malay on March 30-31. It's a long tournament -- which hopefully will end up with at least a couple of players moving on to regionals.
Track and Field
As we move into the second half of our Track and Field season, we have seen tremendous growth from our Student/Athletes both in athletically abilities and confidence. Here are a few highlights from both the Middle School and High School Track and Field season.
Middle School
All of the middle school students/athletes work extremely hard in practice and it shows when they compete. They are all performing well even though they have not been competing long. Silin Kindell and Jasmine Washington have performed well enough to compete in a High School meets!
High School
 We have only one senior this year (Christian Philpott). So, we have a young HS team. For some, this is their first time competing in Track and Field. They all have a work ethic that is impressive. I'm  very proud of how hard they all have been working in practice. As we move forward, I look forward to seeing them improve and become elite Track and Field student/athletes.
For complete results on track meets that have taken place, please click here.
Softball
 Congratulations to Coach Gorham and the Lady Eagles softball team. NFC is currently 13-3 on the year and ranked #1 in 3A by the Florida Coaches Poll.

Legacy Wall
| |
 The response to those participating in Legacy Wall has been outstanding. So many have shared their stories as to why they have bought a brick to help build the wall and thus becoming a legacy on the campus at North Florida Christian School.
If you have not done so, the time is now for you to purchase your brick. Simply go to http://nfclegacy.org/ to personalize your brick for the Legacy Wall. Bricks may be bought and personalized to advertise a business, remember a loved one, celebrate a graduate, or recognize a member of an athletic team. The website provides several examples to help you choose a layout.
We are almost ready to add the first bricks to the Legacy Wall. If you are able to get your brick order in before March 13th, your brick will go up with the first bricks on the wall. We will put the second group of bricks up around May 1st.
