A new coach is always and adjustment for any high school athlete. When that athlete is a senior, there are other factors as work. Do they even go out knowing that they will only get that coach for one season? For Knoxville Volleyball, Coach Mollie Keitges had zero concerns about her four seniors this season. She says Haili Swan, Maggie Leavitt, Nikki Cunningham, and Lorin Miller were not only excellent leaders but great teammates as well. Keitges adds Swan and Miller’s playing time was limited due to injuries, but did anything asked, and Leavitt and Cunningham took advantage of the increased playing time. The Panthers finished 4-34 on the season.
