The Candid "Panther" Camera section has become one of the most popular features on the weekly blog and also one of my favorites. Most of the time the players and even coaches look away when the camera is focused on them. However, sometimes they get caught looking at the camera which has become somewhat of a challenge for me. The results are usually mixed with surprise and a "pose" and sometimes there are a couple of players and one certain trainer that looks for that chance to be the center of attention, but of course I will not mention any names. 

And finally even Coach Jacobs becomes a victim!

RECENT SIGNS POSTED IN JERSEYVILLE SUGGEST THAT WE "BLEED BLUE" IN SUPPORT OF OUR PANTHERS BUT OUR GIRLS PROVE THAT THEY REALLY HAVE THE SPIRIT!
