2022 Record: 0-10 overall, 0-3 district
Best Case Scenario: 1-9 overall. The Knights have been on a continued downfall only winning 1 game over the last two seasons (1-18 overall). Last season the Knights were outscored 498 (PA) to 100 (PF). The Knights did double digits in scoring in three games last season -- Rio Grande (22-20 OT), Manzano (55-26), and Bernalillo (60-22) -- and 'only' had two shutout losses (Deming, Highland). They are still years away from getting back to the .500 range but they'll look to be more competitive this season.
Worst Case Scenario: 0-10 overall. Back-to-back winless records could really be detrimental for any hope of building the program back. Back-to-back winless seasons could also be the reality. In a numbers game, the Knights struggle in getting participation numbers up. The Rio Grande game is critical for the Knights season.
