It was a slower pace for Prairie City, but the Panthers kept energized. “Our team maintained a high level of play on our side of the net, focusing on tough accurate serving, disciplined coverage and an aggressive smart attack on all balls put into play,” said coach Louanne Zweygardt. Panther middle hitter Cassie Hire said it was a good win. “I felt we kept our energy up and pushed through, even though they’re not as com- petitive,” she said. On Sept. 27, the Panther varsity team met up with Burns junior varsity at the Hilanders’ court. Prairie City won with scores of 25-12, 25-10 and 25-10. Panther junior varsity topples Mountaineers in close games Prairie City gridders compete in Huntington The Prairie City Pan- ther football team trav- eled Friday to face the Locomotives in Huntington. Huntington claimed the 33-8 win. The Locomotives were first to score and led 13-0 in the first quarter. Prairie City got on the board in the sec- ond when quarterback Jayden Winegar connected with Danner Davis for a touchdown. Panther Connor Jones ran the ball in for the two- point conversion. Panther head coach Nate Barber said they are down players be- cause of injuries and ineligibilities. “We have some strong, steady players like Con- nor Jones, Jake McHat- ton and Lucas McKinley,” Barber said. “Our defense is getting better each week.” In junior varsity action on Thursday, Prairie City Pan- thers hosted the Long Creek/ Ukiah Mountaineers. The Panthers took the sweep with scores of 25-21, 25-18 and 25-18. “Long Creek/Ukiah had a great deal of hustle, keep- ing a lot of balls in play and giving our girls a fun chal- lenge,” said Panther coach Louanne Zweygardt. “Aries Bice had six aces and Shae- lynn Bice had five aces and five kills.” She added, “It is fun to see the improvement in these girls as the season goes on.” Long Creek/Ukiah coach Linda Studtmann, who coaches with Reagan En- riquez, said she’s seen steady improvement from the team. “It’s coming together,” Studtmann said. “They’re learning how to be a team, working together, help- ing and encouraging each other.” 1.Grant Union vs Culver Ny da m’ s week 5 of 13 • IT’S EASY • IT’S FREE The helpful place.
