Adam McKnight nearing Nixa football passing record
Quarterback Adam McKnight is nearing the all-time passing record for Nixa football.
Nixa senior quarterback Adam McKnight is on the verge of breaking the school's all-time passing record. The Eagles' star has thrown for 3,919 yards in his career, just 87 yards shy of Connor Knatcal's 4,005-yard mark set in 2023. McKnight's performance has been instrumental in leading the team to two consecutive state title game appearances.
The next crucial game for McKnight to officially claim the top spot comes in the highly anticipated matchup against Republic on September 11. Last week, McKnight delivered a standout performance, tossing for 224 yards and two touchdowns against Joplin, while also setting the tone with 143 yards and a touchdown in the season opener against Carthage.
A three-star recruit according to 24/7 Sports and the state's No. 1 quarterback, McKnight is committed to Missouri State.
