The Jal Panthers will be taking part in a tournament against the Santa Rosa Lions at 1:00 p.m. on Thursday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Jal is headed into their home opener looking to turn things around after starting their season on the road. They took a blow against Wall on Monday, falling 54-16.
Meanwhile, Santa Rosa fought the good fight in their overtime matchup against Fort Sumner/House on Tuesday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell 68-62 to Fort Sumner/House. Give some credit to the fans of both teams: the last four times they've met, the home team has come away the winner.
Jal didn't have too much breathing room in their contest against Santa Rosa when the teams last played back in March of 2020, but they still walked away with a 47-42 victory. Will the Panthers repeat their success, or do the Lions have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
