With the final whistle blown and championship medals hung, Henryetta High School takes a moment to look back and celebrate the exceptional accomplishments of its athletic programs during the 2024-25 school year. From cross country to baseball, Knight athletes demonstrated grit, growth, and greatness on and off the field in what was one of the most successful athletic years in recent history.
The Henryetta Public Schools (HPS) athletics department, with support from Coach Brian Leader and numerous coaching staff, compiled a comprehensive recap of the year’s highlights - an impressive collection of achievements across multiple sports that showcase the dedication of students and staff alike.
“We are incredibly proud of what was accomplished by our hardworking HS athletic programs,” stated Coach Leader. “The success our students and coaches achieved in the highly competitive 3A/4A class was truly outstanding.”
Although space did not allow for listing every individual athlete or scholarship recipient, the breadth of awards and milestones speaks volumes about the direction and strength of the program.
