Jacob Walker ('25) Joins the Sunrise Family

Wichita, KS - Sunrise Christian Academy is thrilled to announce the enrollment of Jacob Walker, a part of the class of 2025 from Memphis, TN.

Head Coach Kyle Lindsted shared his thoughts on Jacob's commitment stating, "Not everyone takes pride in being a great on-ball defender. Jacob's desire to be that and really challenge whoever is across from him with a chip on his shoulder makes him a great addition to the program here at Sunrise. Even more than that as a player, his desire to grow and prepare for college makes us confident that he will fit right in and excel in the year ahead!"

"When recruits and their families commit to being a part of Sunrise Christian Academy, that is Day 1," noted Coach Kyle Lindsted. "We're always going to do everything we can to empower Jacob to be his very best and are excited that his family has made the decision to join the same family as many Buffaloes before them."

Sunrise Christian Academy looks forward to Jacob's arrival and his future contributions to both the school & basketball program, aiming for its sixth High School Nationals appearance in the past seven years and second NIBC/EYBL Scholastic title in the fourth year of the conference's existence.
