WKMS Football - Division Champs!
Our White Knoll Middle School football team finished their regular season with a first time ever undefeated season of 7-0! They also earned a school history win of Division Champs! The Knoll took to the field in the Lex 10 Championship and although they came up a bit short of the title, they represented our school so well! These young men and coaches have served our community so well all season and we are so proud of the effort they put into every practice and every day! Thank you to the families and community members that have supported our War Hawks! We have had record-breaking attendance and the boys truly felt the love.
We also want to thank our amazing cheerleaders, dancers, and coaches that have supported the team this season as well! You brought such wonderful energy to the field each week!
