Boys BB- Zach Lewis-Zach was the teams 3rd leading scorer in the month of January.  Zach was also the teams 2nd leader in assists and steals. Zach's contributions helped the Knights to a 5-2 record.

 

Cheer- Aeri Johnson. Aerilyn shows up to practice on time and works hard at practice and at home. 

 

Scholastic Bowl- Ivy Whitehouse.  Ivy has steadily improved this year as the scholastic bowl season has progressed.  Ivy co-captains the JV team and currently leads them in toss-ups.  Ivy specializes in literature, mainly Shakespearean works and characters.  Ivy does what is asked, writing bonus parts down for notes to study from for future contests.
