The Panthers got off to a weak start in their hosted quadrangular last Friday, giving up 4 pins and winding up trailing BEA by one point.

“In the end it came down to them getting bonus points when they needed and us not being able to get them,” said coach Shawn Larson.

The Panthers will be looking forward to an opportunity to rematch.

The Panthers continued to play strong against Hayfield on Saturday, Jan. 3, turning around a narrow lead with 5 minutes left in the game.

NRHEG got their 54-48 victory after a long close battle. 

“The word I would use to describe this game was grinder,” said coach Pat Churchill. “Hayfield tried to grind this game to a halt.”
