St. Mary's High School - Inspired by Faith

Service is a big part of our St. Mary's spirit! Earlier this semester, Adam Tunnelle '23 and Liam Watson '23 served as volunteers at the Assistance League of Colorado Springs. Students are currently turning in their service hour totals for the 2021-2022 school year. Any guesses how many hours our Pirates have served this year? #StMarysPiratesServiceSaturday #SMHSPiratePride #SMHSInspiredByFaith #SMHSUnitedByCommunity

Jackson Neppl '23, pictured left at an indoor track meet earlier this season, took third overall in the 800m at the 2022 Adidas Track Nationals this weekend in Virginia Beach. He ran a new personal record for in the event with a time of 1:57.74. He also ran a new PR in the 400m with a 52.09. His first season of running indoor track was one to remember for Neppl. He qualified for nationals in late February at the Real Training Indoor Meet. His times at the event rank as some of the fastest run by a St. Mary's athlete in these events. His 800m 1:58.50 at the qualifying event was the second fastest in St. Mary’s history, while his 52.21 in the 400m was the third fastest in SMHS history. Congratulations, Jackson! #SMHSPIratePride #SMHSPiratesAchieve #SMHSUnitedByCommunity
