With the first night under their belt, the class 4A #13 Knoxville Volleyball Squad looks to the South Central Conference for a season of redemption. The Panthers felt after last season, they let several matches slip away and now with nearly everyone back and with a few talented new faces to the lineup, Knoxville is poised to make a run to reclaim the conference title. While Monday night’s quad sweep put smiles on the faces of all the Panthers, Senior Libero Emma Dunkin tells KNIA/KRLS Sports she and the rest of the team are not satisfied.

Dunkin: “I’m just looking forward to seeing what everyone can reach, and they are a lot of kids on this team with super high potential, and Monday was good but we have so far to go.”

The Panthers resume the season Tuesday at Albia to start off South Central Conference play. Find an interview with Dunkin and teammate Melanie Sullivan on kniakrls.com that aired on this week’s Radio Sports Page Wednesday at 6:00 and Thursday at 10:00.
