Athletic Weekly 11-10 – 11-15Friday was one for the history books! The Eagles proved once again why they remain unbeaten, overcoming several setbacks and roadblocks that would have derailed other teams.Before an enormous crowd, Kent City handed top-seeded Belding their second loss of the season. It wasn’t easy, that’s for sure. For starters, this marked the Eagles’ second consecutive road game in the MHSAA playoffs — a challenge they certainly didn’t deserve, but one that didn’t faze them either.After the opening kickoff was returned for a Belding touchdown and Kent City’s first drive stalled, a bit of doubt spread through the visitor stands.  Our team and coaches had other plans, they said NO PROBLEM!  The Eagles answered back with their own special teams spark, pinning the Black Knights at their own 1-yard line. A botched snap on the ensuing punt led to a safety — and Kent City quickly turned that momentum into six more points.Late in the first half, an Eagle turnover

Earlier this fall (September 17) Kent City Athletics came together on Kleefstra Syndrome Awareness Day, in an incredible way to show support and love for one of our own — Adalee Pelletier Harding.   Adalee, who lives with the rare genetic disorder known as Kleefstra Syndrome, was celebrated across Kent City Athletics as our student-athletes and coaches joined in by wearing purple to raise awareness.The Varsity Volleyball team invited Adalee to their practice, where they all wore purple, took pictures with her, and surprised her with a goodie bag full of volleyball gear she absolutely loved. 💜  The Varsity Soccer team also joined in, wearing purple pre-wrap on their wrists in Adalee’s honor. And throughout the day, countless other students and athletes proudly wore purple to show their support.Adalee’s family shared the following message of gratitude:“The love and support we received from student-athletes and coaches was amazing and something our school should be proud o

Athletic Weekly 11-3 – 11-8I may sound like a broken record on this topic, but it’s such an important ingredient in the success of all our teams and student-athletes that I’m going to emphasize it again: staying composed, moving forward, and focusing on the next play truly defines championship-level performance.At this point in the season, it’s win or go home. Our final two teams of the fall — football and volleyball — have reached that stage, with District Finals coming up later this week. Emotions are high, and rightfully so. The suddenness of a season potentially coming to a close can be intense, but keeping our emotions in check and staying focused on what’s gotten us this far will be a major factor in our success.The key: focus on the next play.Our volleyball team is 31-7-2 for a reason, and our varsity football team is sitting at 10-0 for a reason. Both have faced moments this season that didn’t go their way — a lost set, a turnover, a miss

The JV volleyball team finished up their 2025 season traveling to Sparta for a Quad match. The team opened the night with Sparta and just struggled to get anything going. Sparta kept on their tough serving and the Eagles lost in two sets 14-25 and 11-25. They then took on the Cedar Springs Red Hawks. The Eagles came out strong and had an early lead in the first set behind a strong 5 point serving run by Callie Stinson but could not close out the match late and lost 17-25. The second set the Red Hawks had a server go on a long run that the Eagles could not break and lost the second set as well 15-25. The last match of the night the Eagles took on the Grant Tigers. Coming off a loss to the Cedar the first set was more of the Eagles just not being able to play consistent volleyball and the Tigers took the set 16-25. The Eagles would not give up though and battled in the second set digging up balls repeatedly on defense to make the Tigers keep playing the ball and won 25-23 forcing a third
