Walsenburg was not able to break out of their rough patch on Wednesday as the team picked up their tenth straight loss. They were a single point away from ending the streak, but they lost a 39-38 heartbreaker at the hands of Varsity Opponent. The game was a 24-24 toss-up at halftime, but the Panthers couldn't quite close it out.
Walsenburg lost despite a true team effort on offense, the best among them being Gavan Perrino, who went 5 for 10 to rack up 13 points and five steals. What's more, Perrino also posted a 50% field goal percentage, which is the highest he's posted since back in December of 2024. Another player making a difference was Logan Tenorio, who almost dropped a double-double on nine points and 13 rebounds.
Walsenburg's defeat dropped their record down to 2-14.
Looking ahead, a feisty cat fight will be fought when the Panthers challenge the Tigers at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday. Varsity Opponent has already played their next contest (against IMG Academy Gold), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
