It is with great sorrow that I post the sad news that our Football Family at West Ashley has lost one of our beloved brothers. Sophomore RB/Rover Mikell McKelvey lost his life early Thursday morning. We ask you to keep his family, his teammates, his classmates, his coaches (1/2)
Before tomorrow, we want to show off our helmets for the 2021 season… The most important part you’ll see, is on the back of the helmet. We will honor our teammate and brother Mikell McKelvey. We love and miss you!

That’s a Homecoming Victory! Your West Ashley Wildcats continue their best start to a season in school history moving to 7-0 on the season, and 1-0 in the Region! Your Wildcats are on the road next Friday Night at Ashley Ridge! We will see you all there!
#TheWest
My gosh- moments don’t get better than this. Honored to be there for it- Former CSU HC & current West Ashley assistant David Dowd leaves his final prostate cancer radiation treatment and rings the bell in front of a waiting room full of former players, family, friends & coaches
Congratulations to West Ashley’s Jahleel Porter and Caleb Edwards for being selected to the HSSR South Carolina HS All State Football team.
Porter a RB made the Overall and 5A All State Teams while Edwards a LB made the 5A All State team. Both are Juniors.
#TheWest
and his teachers in your prayers. We are all heartbroken over this but will cherish our memories with him. Once a Wildcat, Always a Wildcat.

for featuring our own, Kicker

MK Smoak! She said it best, she is no different than anyone out on that field, we’re so lucky to have her as apart of our program!
#UniteTheWest
SHE laid the boom.
West Ashley is doing some unprecedented things this year. A 4-0 start. 1st win over Berkeley.
A female kicker there isn’t unprecedented. But one recording a tackle. Oh yes.
MK Smoak didn’t “fear the deer”- she took down the Berkeley Stag heading her way.
GAMEDAY! The 2023 season is here! Your Wildcats kick off tonight at 7:30 PM against the Lower Richland ARRIVE EARLY! As we dedicate the athletic season to Jeff Fipps, tonight will be 4Fipps night, and at 7:15 we will honor Coach Fipps! Wear your 4Fipps shirts or black!

🚨UPDATE🚨 After further clarification, Jahleel Porter’s school record 101 yard interception return for a touchdown does count and the final score of the game is scored as 20-7!
