Football statistical gurus will tell you that any time you hold a team to 10 yards rushing and have a plus-three turnover ratio, you should win.

Sometimes, though, statistics can be deceiving.

The NRHEG Panthers controlled the game in many facets but fell short 21-20 in overtime in a Section 3AA quarterfinal at Maple River Tuesday, Oct. 21.

The loss ended the season for the seventh-seeded Panthers, who finished 3-6. The No. 2 seeded Eagles improved to 8-1.
