One of the unsung heroes for the Knoxville Girls has been Bethany Just. Last season her minutes were limited because of injury and playing mostly junior varsity. This season the senior has grabbed her chance to show what she can do and has impressed. Coach Jim Utimarkt says Just’s hustle plays really have an effect on the team. Just has been hobbled by an injured ankle and has already had a couple of knee injuries among other during her high school career. Just saved at least three possessions against Chariton last Monday to allow Knoxville to stay in control of the game. She is also scoring averaging around five points per game which Utimarkt says is huge.
