This past weekend KRFC traveled to Nashville, TN to participate in Nash Bash. On Saturday the Possums faced off against Queen City (Cincinnati, OH) and came away with a 47-19 victory and a chance for several new players to get much needed playing time and experience. On Sunday the Possums returned to the pitch with only 15 players as several players had to return to Knoxville after Saturday’s match. Knoxville had several players playing out of position and at less than 100 % but was able to put together an impressive game and defeat White River (Indianapolis, IN) 43-0. Next up is the Red vs Grey scrimmage and Family/ Old Boy Appreciation Day set for April 21st at Possum Park.

Huntsville was a few players short and the teams quikly decided that Huntsville would forfeit and a the teams would play a friendly to allow everyone to get a run in. The Possums controlled the game from the start and scored several tries while only conceding 3 points on a penalty kick to Huntsville.
