The Knoxville Volleyball Squad cruised to a 3-0 sweep of Centerville on Tuesday 25-14, 25-11 and 25-18. Brittany Bacorn led a balanced attack at the net with nine kills and Melanie Sullivan had eight. Bacorn also had 14 assets and 13 digs. Emma Dunkin and Kira Deaver both went 11/12 serving. The Panthers are 18-8 on the season and 2-3 in the South Central Conference. Players Tara Bacorn and Ella Breazeale tell KNIA/KRLS Sports the coaching staff has been using the word intentional this season and they are making sure to put it into use.

Tara: “It really comes down to the practices, and what we need to work on and it really keeps the practices intense and makes us focus on what we need to work on.”
Ella: “Just being intentional to keep working on things, and not just doing it to do but doing it great.”

Knoxville has won its last seven matches in a row and 11 of the last 13. The Panthers are in the Pella Invitational on Saturday. Hear a full interview with Bacorn and Breazeale tonight on the Radio Sports Page at 6:00 or Thursday at 10:00 on KNIA/KRLS.
