Malik White: Hawks' Kicker Balances Books and Field Goals
Hazelwood Central Hawks kicker Malik White is known for his clutch performances on the field, but what's equally impressive is his ability to balance a 4.0 GPA with the demands of being a varsity starter. Last season, White connected on 12 of 15 field goal attempts, including a 45-yarder in the Hawks' 24-21 win over Parkway South. As a Class of 2025 prospect, White is already being touted as one of the top kickers in the Missouri Class 5 district. With his strong leg and accurate kicking, White is a valuable asset to the Hawks' offense. Off the field, White is an honor roll student who credits his academic success to a combination of hard work and effective time management. As scouts begin to take notice of White's impressive resume, they'll be watching to see how he adapts to increased pressure and competition, particularly in the Hawks' upcoming season opener against Lindbergh.
