“We were prepared to play the game on Friday night and overall we didn’t play well. We truly got handed it to us,” said head coach John Myers. “We are too good of a team to play they way we did. We could never get a good start and we missed some opportunities. We are just going to put it behind us and get ready to play next week.
The Panthers will face Todd County Central next Friday at an away game.
