Basketball Preview: Walsenburg Panthers vs. Kim/Branson Mustangs
The Walsenburg Panthers will be taking part in a tournament against the Kim/Branson Mustangs at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday. Hopefully Walsenburg focused on turnovers this week as the team gave up 11 on Tuesday.
Walsenburg had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They breezed by Varsity Opponent to the tune of 41-10. The win was some much needed relief for the Panthers as it spelled an end to their 16-game losing streak dating back to last season.
Walsenburg's win was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from Kaydence Perrino, who went 7 for 13 en route to 14 points plus three steals. The team also got some help courtesy of Adrianna Bobian, who earned 11 points plus five rebounds and three steals.
Meanwhile, Kim/Branson strolled past Trinidad with points to spare on Tuesday, taking the game 36-19.
Walsenburg took a serious blow against Kim/Branson in their previous meeting back in December of 2022, falling 42-7. Thankfully for Walsenburg, Emmalee Buhrle (who went 8 for 15 en route to 18 points plus six rebounds and four blocks) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
