The Maranatha Academy girls basketball program has been consistently competitive over the years. The Crusaders play in the Indian Trails Conference (ITC) as well as the Wisconsin Association of Christian Schools (WACS) postseason tournament. Maranatha won its most recent WACS Class A state championship in 2009-10, and 2nd place finish in 2014-15. The Crusaders were coached by Autumn Stevens (2012-2015), and then in 2016 Katelyn Hockema took over the reigns. In 2017, the head coach is Kimberly Grogan and longtime assistant coach, Ann Bolton, will continue to guide the team.
