Basketball

The CAL basketball program began in the fall of 1998. The school at the time had less than 100 students, which made it very difficult for the school to compete in the Kentucky Christian Athletic Association (KCAA). Throughout the years CAL has grown to be a much larger school, but is still small compared to other Christian schools in the state of Kentucky. Despite its humble beginnings, CAL has become a perennial powerhouse in the KCAA and Kentucky Christian School Athletic Association (KCSAA). The small school has produced several college athletes and has reached the state tournament eight out of the last nine years, including an impressive championship win in the 2A state tournament in 2010–2011 season and has earned a birth to the NACA National Tournament six of the last seven years, with another runner-up championship win.
