Earning the title “Black Knight” has been an honor earned by Middletown High School football players since the early beginnings of the program. Coach Tim Ambrose and staff created this tradition to honor those who earned the title by being consistent performers on the field. A “Black Knight” is an elite class of players who played the game with tremendous heart and used every fiber in their body to help their TEAM succeed. To become a Black Knight one has to earn nominations in 2 games to be considered for a vote by the coaching staff.
