The South Holt Knights have won 12 games, lost 1 game, and they have had 1 tie. There are 10 players on the team this year with Ms. Lynn being their coach. Ms. Lynn's favorite thing about volleyball is watching the girls get better. Her favorite thing about coaching is that it's fun to help students gain skills and learn how to be a team player.

The Junior High cheerleaders cheered at 4 of the 5 games. They didn’t cheer at the first one because 5 out of the 7 girls were playing volleyball that day. Junior High cheer is coached by Ms. Ezzell. The cheer captains are Lexi Vanhoutan and Katelyn Schuman. There are 7 girls in Junior High cheer. Two of them are 8th graders and five of them are 7th graders. The 8th graders are Lexi Vanhoutan and Katelyn Schuman. The 7th graders are Chloe Debee, Katie Fansher, Camdyn Davison, Carlee Knapp, and Leah Howell. I asked Mrs. Ezzell what her favorite game they cheered at was and why, and she said, “ The first game they cheered at because it was fun to watch the cheerleaders cheer in front of a crowd although some were still confused about offense and defense”. I interviewed Chloe Debee and asked her what her favorite part of cheer is and she said, “Getting to bond with everyone and just having fun”. I also asked if she plans on cheering next year and she said “Yes”.

They’ve played Albany 6-3, North Andrew 17-7, Dekalb 12-2, North East Nodaway 2-3, and North Andrew 13-6. They have 11 players.

Zoe has been playing softball since she was 5 or 6 years old! Zoe plays catcher and third base. She's been playing with Lady Knights off and on. Zoe and Coach Allen think it's been a learning experience.

Zoe has hit a grand slam, home run, and has made multiple outs. Lady Knights have had many learning experiences this season!
