The Panorama Panther girls basketball team started their new year season by turning heads with a crushing 81-4 win over the Ogden Bulldogs Friday at home.
Mia Waddle, Tyme Boettcher, Zoey Hambleton and Jaidyn Sellers led the Panthers in scoring with double digits.
“With this being the first game back from winter break and the emotional events this week, we reminded the team stay focused on the fundamentals and working together,” said Coach Boettcher. “It was a great team win with every girl contributing.”
The Panther fans and Ogden fans both wore blue in memory of the tragic events at Perry High School last week.
