Reid Remmert

THE ROYAL G U A R D

ELKINS KNIGHTS The Knights were competitive across the board this winter, particularly in the pool, where five swimmers advanced to Regionals. Among them, Reid Remmert shined, earning bronze in the 100-yard freestyle and securing a spot at the UIL State Meet. On the soccer field, the Elkins girls’ team, led by senior Madison Innis and sophomores Heldana Dawit and Jada Moye, clinched a playoff berth after a strong district finish. The boys narrowly missed out but had standout performances from Nehemia Daniel (Sr.), Creighton Mitchell (Jr.), and Matthew White (Sr.). On the basketball court, both teams faced tough breaks and fell short of the postseason. However, individual standouts like Joshua Lord, Cheyenne Trusclair, Landon Shotlow, and Anita Akwiwu remained bright spots for each respective squad. Looking ahead to spring, the Knights’ Track & Field program has high expectations entering the District Meet, thanks to impressive showings thus far from Laila Walls, Maxwell Powers, Sydney Sims, Julien Henry, and David Anigbogu. The baseball team is adjusting after the departure of former star Braylon Payne, now a Milwaukee Brewers prospect, but seniors Bradford McGowen (2B), Santiago Pacheco (1B), Parker Hunter (SS), and junior Landen Klaus (IF) are poised to lead the charge toward a potential playoff push. While the softball team continues to develop, Victoria Vargas (Sr. IF/P), Angelita Robertson (Sr. OF/IF), and Shannon Retchless (Sr. P) have been key contributors. Additionally, a deep golf roster could bode well for the Knights moving forward.
