Knights coach Jenks closing chapter at Royal

ROYAL CITY – After eight years as the head coach of the Knights baseball team, Brandon Jenks is stepping away from his role. Balancing work, family and coaching eventually created too many obstacles, and he felt it was time to step away. “My job makes me travel a little more, so in order to make it back for practice every day, it’s been really challenging to manage all those things, to make sure I fulfill all my responsibilities on the other side, and then give the kids everything I’ve got on the field as well,” Jenks said. Jenks said it was important for him to be able to watch his two younger daughters play softball.
