RETURNING STARTERS:

LOOK AHEAD

The Panthers again will be a senior-dominated team as they look to return to the postseason for the second consecutive year.

COACH’S COMMENT

“ Replacing (last year’s senior class) leadership is going to be harder to replace than on the field … it’s a matter of can we reproduce the leadership (and) team unity that we had last year?

Mark Perry,

14th season
