2025 boys track All GPC team

Carter Campbell was selected as the inaugural Graphic Printing Company Athlete of the Year for boys track.

“It was a really good season overall,” said Campbell. “I had great meets at the Knights Invite, conference, county and a good meet at the sectional too with us placing fourth with all the big schools. It was a really good year as a team and individually.”

Campbell led the Golden Falcons to the first Tri-Eastern Conference title since the 1990s and a fourth-place finish at the sectional meet hosted by Muncie Central. 

He set school records in the 110-meter hurdles (15.24 seconds), 300 hurdles (38.27 seconds), combined with Ian Hardwick, Hunter Patterson and Javier Robles to break the 4x400 relay record (3 minutes, 26.03 seconds) and hit a new career best in the 200 dash. Campbell placed high enough to advance to the regional in all four events. From there, he made state in the 300 hurdles and missed the 110 hurdles by 0.14 seconds. His season ended with a fifth-place finish at state with a time of 38.27.

“I got PRs in all my events,” Campbell said. “My goal was to come to state again and place.”

“I think the thing that makes him so special is that he’s a team player and he brings the people around him to a higher level,” said WCHS coach Annie Sonfronko. “We were a pretty below average track team his freshman year and just adding him blossomed the team. … He’s a leader because he does everything right. He eats right, he sleeps right, he’s a 4.0 and does it almost all the time.”
