2nd place in Wesco North (7-1, 9-2)

RETURNING STARTERS:

Offense 2; Defense 6

LOOK AHEAD

The Panthers again will be a senior-dominated team as they look to return to the postseason for the second consecutive year. Cameron Woolsey, who earned All Wesco second team honors last season at defensive back, will lead a Panthers squad looking to replace six players who earned All Wesco first team honors last season, including Derek Jones, who rushed for 20 touchdowns and nearly 1,800 yards last season.

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
