Last Saturday Night at 6:30pm our Panther coaches and teachers took on the KSBY news team and came out victorious.  In what was an exciting match-up, the  Panthers took the win convincingly 63-44.  The event was billed as s fundraiser for the boys and girls basketball programs and raised over $800!! Highlights of the evening included a half time giveaway of gift cards, booster spirit items, golf packages and Lakers tickets. Our big winner of the Lakers tickets was none other than our dearly missed front office Admin Monica!

Players for the Panther squad included Neil Eckardt, Ross Rivera, Marcus Guzman, Bilena Brafman, Michael Bloodworth, Ashley Sandoval, Johanna Perez, Tulip Cano, Christian Basulto, Richard Faulk, Victor Quintana, Stevie Martinez, Isaiah Quintana, Chad & Haley Bohi, Katie & Andrew Daly.

I asked KSBY news anchor Scott Hennessy if he would come back and do this as an annual event. Also, if he had a good time being on the court competing and bonding with his team, he said ” I would do it again for sure! It was a lot of fun! This like I said, was very fun and people at my job don’t do this very often and to come together and compete athletically, which is something I have done all my life, so I really enjoyed it! It was a great experience for our team, and it was also really nice for me to meet a lot of the nice coaches from pioneer valley high school. They were better than us today, but we had a really good time playing against them!“
