The South Central Conference has released its all conference basketball lists for this season. Knoxville earned a total of five spots on the 1st and 2nd team between boys and girls. For the girls on the 1st Team was Hannah Dunkin.

Hannah was the leading scorer for the most part this season but also set a team record for the best free throw percentage in team history at 82%, she also moved into the top ten in points scored with 845, field goals made with 283, three point shots made with 114, free throws made with 165, and is right now the career leader in free throw percentage at 76% and career three point percentage at 35%. Dunkin is also 155 points from becoming the sixth player, to reach the 1,000 career points mark in the five-on-five era. Also earning 1st team all-conference was Brittany Bacorn.

Bacorn ended a stellar career 2nd in career rebounds with 636, 9th in career points at 758, and 3rd in field goal percentage at 45%. That is on top of finishing arguably one of the greatest volleyball careers in Knoxville High School history. Bacorn will continue her athletic career next fall by playing volleyball for the University of Tulsa. Earning honorable mention for the Panthers were Abbie Keitges, Addi Dunkin, and Anna Buttell. For the boys Landen Norris was the lone Panthers to earn first team all-South Central Conference.

Norris was a unanimous 1st team selection. He led the Panthers in points with 20.3 points per game, rebounds with 190, and assists with 60. Norris is currently 45 points shy of the 1,000 career mark and could become just the third boy in Knoxville history to accomplish that feat in the three point shot era joining Kieren Nichols and Brad Davis. On the 2nd team was Kaiden Smith. Smith came on in the second half of the season after starting the year nursing a knee injury suffered in the preseason. Also making the 2nd team was Lincoln Norris. The freshman was second on the team in assists with 56. Earning honorable mention was Koby Higginbotham, Carson Uitermarkt, and Jay Kellar. The girls finished 11-11 and 10-4 in the conference, while the boys were 14-8 and 11-3 in conference play.
