It’s a great day to be a Knight. What’s a better way to celebrate that than coming to support your volleyball teams while they play Kalamazoo Central? We can’t think of one. Come out to cheer on your fellow Knights at 5:30 today for the Freshmen and JV matches, with Varsity to follow. The theme of the game is pink-out. We hope to see you there.
