The Christchurch School (CCS) football team won the VISF8L Division 1 Championship on Saturday at Dinwiddie Sports Complex in Dinwiddie.
The Seahorses kicked off at noon against the Virginia Episcopal School (VES) Bishops of Lynchburg. VES had given Christchurch its only loss of the season 28-18 when the teams first squared off in Lynchburg in October. The Seahorses were eager for the re-match, and won the final thriller 40-38, becoming state champions.
The team is coached by Head Coach Joel Jorgensen and assistant coaches John Dehm, CJ Kelly, Floyd Crouch and Jordan Wallace (CCS 2013). Seniors Keegan Slider of Farnham and Felix Koerner of Venice, Fla., have been selected to play in the annual North Carolina versus Virginia eight-man All-Star game on Sunday, Nov. 26.
