beech is a really sound team. a sub state team last year that only lost two starters. wouldnt call them weak. also er is a pretty good team and macon was a region team a year ago that lost 3-4 starters. lets not hate on the panthers. i simply stated they lost to a beech team that is really good.
the panther schedule is not an easy one. it could be one of the best in the state. games against beech, jp2, 2 games against hendersonville, lebanon, upperman, goodpasture twice, dca twice, white house twice, greenbrier and sc twice, and many more there are no gimme wins on the schedule. the panthers are much improved this year.
they have their home opener vs. red boiling springs at 6 today.
