Knoxville has the biggest part of the Little Hawkeye Conference schedule to go for its wrestling season. The Panthers have Pella, Oskaloosa, and Newton on the schedule and Coach Eric Whitcome says those three matches are very big. He adds if they can win those three matches, the team has a chance to finish third in the conference. The Panthers also go to Invitationals at Centerville, Johnston, and host the Little Hawkeye Conference Tournament in late January.
