Fifteen girls and twelve boys represented the Hawks at the NCISAA Division I Track and Field Championships May 19-20. Led by top-three finishes in pole vault, high jump, and triple jump, the CLS boys' team finished tenth and the girls' team finished eighth. 

Junior Keller Hitzemann was the first to find the podium, clearing a personal record of 12'6" in the pole vault to finish second in day one of competition. The Hawks were well represented in the girls' high jump, with senior Avery Swartz, junior Toryn Nichols, and sophomores Paige Fletcher and Maggie Klingman competing. Paige tied her personal record of 4'10" to tie for second with Summer Shamp from Charlotte Christian. On day two, senior Morgan Smith cleared 10'6" in the pole vault to claim the runner-up title, and senior Jackson Scott placed third in the triple jump with a mark of 44'1.25". 

Overall, Latin student-athletes achieved twelve personal bests, including big improvements by Moné Cary in the discuss, and Mary Cate Kiser and Maggie Klingman in the 3200m. In the 1600m, Jackson DiRoma's 4:19.92 and Helen Hurden's 5:10.79 were both personal records that establish them as the second fastest runners in school history in the boys' and girls' 1600 respectively.
