Hoping the bats start to awaken tonight, the Knoxville Softball Squad will host Keokuk in a non-conference varsity double header. The Panthers have stumbled out of the gate with a 1-4 record and struggling at the plate. Coach Steph Christner tells KNIA/KRLS Sports while the defense has been pretty good the offense still needs to come around. Keokuk comes into tonight’s twin bill with a 2-3 record. The Chiefs are out of the Southeast Conference. You can hear the nightcap of the double header tonight on AM 1320 and 95.3 KNIA and kniakrls.com starting at around 6:45.
