The Knoxville Cross Country Squad will head to Pella today for the class 3A State Qualifier.While the Panthers know it will be a tall order for the team to make a run at the top three qualifying positions, Coach Michael Splavec tells KNIA/KRLS Sports it is worth a try. He says from their first practice August 11th to now, the progress the runners have made is in his words, amazing. The girl’s race is scheduled to start at four at the Central College Cross Country Course.
