His 1941 team went 7-0. This is currently the only time an ECU team has gone undefeated. He finished his two years with a 12-3 record. He did not coach in 1942 because of the outbreak of World War II. The Christenbury Memorial Gymnasium was named in the honor of Coach Christenbury on January 6, 1953.
