Minnehaha Academy Redhawk Athletics
What can you expect to see if your child joins an athletic team at Minnehaha Academy? Relationships. Versatility. Excellence.
Students are part of a program where relationships matter—where coaches know their players, teammates support one another, and faith shapes how competition is approached. Students grow in confidence, character, and leadership through shared commitment and challenge.
Minnehaha encourages students to be versatile. Multi-sport participation is the norm, not the exception, and many athletes are also involved in fine arts and other programs. This breadth builds stronger competitors and healthier perspectives.
Excellence matters. Our teams compete well, our athletes are supported academically, and our coaches reinforce high standards in every area of student life. As a result, Minnehaha student-athletes average higher GPAs than their non-athlete peers.
The right athletic experience is about more than competition.
Visit campus to see how students grow as athletes and teammates—supported by coaches who care about development, character, and balance.

Winning the state title was one of the most invigorating and joyful moments I have ever experienced while participating in sports. It was truly an awesome experience to win that sort of maximum standard for such a great school… a school where I have found academics to be of the utmost importance.
