The Knoxville Boys Basketball Squad seemed to play refreshed and ready last night and the Panthers shooting and tough defense keyed a 69-59 win over Centerville in the first round of the class 3A District. Knoxville drained 13 three point shots while limiting Centerville for the better part of the game on defense limiting the Big Reds’ open shots. Trent Davis led a balanced attack for Knoxville with 19 points while Blake McClung scored 13 points. Knoxville is now 12-10 on the season and will get a third chance at Chariton Thursday night in the District title game.
