Rain chased away any hopes of playing a baseball game on Panther Drive last night as the Knoxville and PCM meeting was called off. That ends the Mustangs regular season at 9-12 and will face Eddyville-Blakesburg-Fremont Saturday in the class 2A district. Knoxville still has a few more regular season games left including tonight’s unusual double header at home against Wayne and South Tama. The Panthers will play Wayne at 5:00 and then South Tama at 7:15, the scheduled game at Creston has now been cancelled. Meanwhile, the Knoxville Softball Squad will look to move one step closer to a South Central Conference title as the Panthers travel to Chariton tonight.

Coach Chris Peden tells KNIA/KRLS Sports the team is in this position because of their willingness to get better at practice.
