SPORTS CORNER
 

FLAG FOOTBALL

All  of our teams are showing tremendous improvement from the first couple of practices to our first games. Each of the teams look like contenders in their divisions this year.   Our coaches are looking for improvement and most importantly ensuring each player is having as much fun as possible! Mrs. Ohlrich, who is leading our girls team, has brought a lot of creativity and spirit to our Athletic Department! 

 

CROSS COUNTRY

Our cross country team has been working hard getting  ready for running the distance.  They have lots of energy and want to do their best as they represent the Knights.
