On Deck Academy is proud to announce the commitment of Koa Mikeal (2026 On Deck O’s/Alexander Central HS) to Catawba College! Koa is a gifted athlete who has the ability to impact a game in many ways. He possesses good power offensively, he runs well, and he has a strong, accurate arm from the outfield. Koa is a good student and he clearly has a very bright future ahead on and off the field. Congratulations to Coach Gantt and the Catawba College staff on landing an outstanding student-athlete for this recruiting class!
We would also like to congratulate Koa and his parents, Becky and Cody, on this impressive achievement. On Deck Academy appreciates the efforts of Coach Hardee and the ACHS Coaching Staff during Koa’s developmental and recruitment process. We look forward to following Koa’s continued success at the next level with the Indians!
