The Background
The King’s Academy in Woodstock, GA is a member of the GICAA (Georgia Independent Christian Athletic Association). This season, they have a solid group returning with a lot of skilled guards. Senior guards Bryce & Hamilton Walker (twins) set the pace on offense and the tone on defense. Senior forward Trey Watson is a skilled 6’7 forward who can play inside, outside, and also run the floor in transition. Brock Hoover, Caden Palmer & Robert Foushee and three talented juniors who round out a solid rotation for the Knights. Last year, the Knights had their ninth straight 20-win season; capped by a trip to the NACA National Championship game where they fell short 63-58 to New Life (Fayetteville, NC).
