With a playoff win on the line, Paradise rose to the challenge on Tuesday. They skirted past the Idalou Wildcats 42-40. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest win the Panthers have posted since December 28, 2024.
Paradise is on a roll lately: they've won 12 of their last 13 matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 27-10 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 65.0 points over those games. Idalou's loss dropped their record down to 29-10.
Looking ahead, a feisty cat fight will be fought as the Panthers take on the Lions at 11:00 a.m. on Friday. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as Kountze comes in on 15 and Paradise on seven. Idalou does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
