Panthers coach Jeremy Mattison told the Preeceville Progress that “at the end of the first quarter they had a three-point lead on us and in the second we did not play well and they still had a lead of eight points. Our players went back to the locker room at half, regrouped and came back out inspired and ready to play their hearts out. We took over the game and with the crowd behind us in support we caught up and wound up tying the game with a 42 to 42 score. The fourth quarter was the deciding factor for us, we got into some foul problems with Zachary Sorgen fouling out but Isaac Kashuba came in and played his best game of the season. … Nobody expected us to win and it was all the heart, sole, hard work and dedication put in by the boys that exceeded everyone’s expectations,” continued Mattison. “They believed in themselves and what they learned and the skills they were given to excel. It was quite possibly one of the most historical moments in the school’s history, especially since the last time Preeceville was at provincials was in 1995 [actually 1994] when they also brought home bronze. We as coaching staff are so overwhelmed with pride for the boys and their never-quit attitude.”
