NMA's Jack Anderson signs with Troy University for track and field

When Jack Anderson signed up for the track and field team at Northside Methodist Academy three years ago, he really didn’t intend to follow through.

“My 10th grade year I was walking down the hall and my friend had to go sign up (for track and field) and I was waiting outside,” Anderson recalled. “Somebody got in trouble and our principal was talking to them and she told me to go inside, because whatever they were talking about was confidential.

His father, Richie, was a college basketball player at Atlanta Christian and was his head coach at NMA.
