The Knights left the Hiawatha Valley League for the Gopher Conference in 2021–22. “Size-wise we’ve been going down with our student population,” the activities director at the time, Randy Hockinson, told the Kenyon Leader when the move was announced. The school’s MSHSL classification enrollment is 204 and its administrative region is 1A.
Our report
Where it stands
A steady spring program, usually written up alongside softball in the Leader's Diamond Wrap. Recent results include 4-0 over Goodhue, 3-2 over Mabel-Canton, 5-4 over Lake City and 6-3 over Blooming Prairie. Sixteen dates are scheduled, weather permitting — the opening slate has been pushed back by rain and cold more than once.
