The Golder Panthers will venture away from home to take on the Hancock Eagles at 10:00 a.m. on Monday. Neither Golder nor Hancock posted many points in their last games, so it might be the defenses that decide this one.
Golder is headed into the game out to prove that what happened against Rowe-Clark on Monday (when they were outscored in every quarter) was just a minor bump in the road. The Panthers were dealt a 53-13 defeat at the hands of the Masai Lions. The Panthers were in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 33-9.
Meanwhile, Hancock took a blow against St. Laurence on Thursday, falling 67-15. While losing is never fun, the Eagles can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Illinois basketball rankings (they are ranked 447th, while the Vikings are ranked 149th).
Hancock's loss dropped their record down to 6-6. As for Golder, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 1-5.
Golder might still be hurting after the 40-17 defeat they got from Hancock in their previous meeting back in December of 2024. Can the Panthers avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
