Boys’ Basketball
Team culture centers around “One Knight, One Family.” The play objectives are aggressive defense, execute well on both ends of the floor, and play an exciting brand of basketball for our community. The goal is to compete, give our student athletes a great experience, and make the correlation between competitive sports and life goals.
