Knoxville’s 6th Annual Coaches vs. Cancer event tips off Saturday morning at 9. There will be women’s alumni games in the morning, men’s alumni games in the afternoon, a silent auction open all day, and many opportunities to give to the event to benefit the American Cancer Society, and to possibly top last year’s largest-ever high school fundraiser in the United States. The varsity boys and girls will play Chariton that evening. Organizer Angie Uitermarkt says that thanks doesn’t seem like enough, and they are proud of the community for getting involved and making this a successful event.
