The Knoxville High School volleyball squad has pulled off a major off-the-court feat; all 15 members of the team — every player on the roster — have been named Academic All-Conference for the season.

The South Central Conference selected the entire Panthers team for the award, based on their individual achievements in the classroom.

The Panthers had a cumulative grade point average of 3.86, topping the 3.80 GPA earned last year by the girls basketball team.

The team also did well on the court; the Panthers finished 17-15 for their first winning season in a decade, and won the South Central Conference title for the second consecutive year.
