The Knoxville Cross Country schedule is challenging this season. The Panthers have two meets they are looking at as a measuring stick to their progress. The first one is on September seventh at Central College hosted by Pella and the other is their own meet on October first. Splavec tells KRLS Sports those two meets will test his runners and runners on the girls squad. Splavec adds the Pella meet will have some of the larger schools in the state runnings and the Panther Invitational will bring in several 4A schools from around the area.
