The Knoxville High student body celebrated like it was 1990 as their Panthers dominated from start to finish in their 49-13 victory over Oskaloosa Friday night to clinch their first playoff berth in 24 years. Knoxville Head Coach Eric Kellar says he doesn’t deserve the credit for being able to turn around a team that was 0-9 last season. Tanner Dunkin was a one-man show, scoring three touchdowns on three consecutive drives in the second quarter… and doing it three different ways: on a reception, a run, and an interception return. The Panthers will now play at Norwalk next Friday with the third seed in District 7 on the line.
