If there is one thing that the Knoxville Girls Basketball Squad needs to improve on is rebounding. The Panthers, while not possessing a lot of size, are still being out rebounded by a large margin. Coach Matt Ritchhart tells KNIA/KRLS Sports no matter what size a player is, they should be able to get a rebound.

Ritchhart “I told the girls if you’re 5/3 or 6/3, just get a rebound, you have to figure you how to get a body on someone and get a rebound.”

The Panthers will get back to practice after having some time off around Christmas. Knoxville will also hold a scrimmage with several area teams this week. Knoxville’s first game back from break is January 3rd against Eddyville-Blakesburg-Fremont.
