Knoxville’s Baseball Squad was all set to travel to Des Moines Hoover yesterday and play in an invitational against Saydel and the host school. However early morning rain made any hopes of playing in that tournament a complete washout. The Panthers will get back at it tomorrow in a varsity double header against Newton. Coach Steve Mott says with the hitting getting better he adds that coaching staff is trying to have the guys adjust to what the pitcher is doing. He has been telling them to put the ball in play. When that happens the opponent is forced to make the play.
