Rock Bridge boys win 3rd straight MSHSAA Class 5 T&F title

The Class 5 championships in Missouri this year were both 3-peats.

Cardinal Ritter girls won again, while the Rock Bridge boys took home first place with 73 1/2 points.

The Bruins didn't have the same dominating showing as 2022 -- a 51-point cushion -- but was well ahead of runner-up Liberty North, which had 58. Camdenton was third and Capital City was fourth with 31.

The Bruins had points in nine of 19 events but in five of those the school had 10 or more. The trophy is the sixth ever for the Columbia school and the fifth in a row for MSHSAA meets held.
