At some point, it had to end. Panther football fans have been spoiled by the most incredible run ever in Illinois 1A football – 32 straight wins – 19 straight playoff wins – 3 straight state championships in a row ... but on Friday in Bloomington, the amazing run of the Lena-Winslow Panthers came to an end at the hands of the same Camp Point Central team they had beaten the year before for their third consecutive state title. "Last year, when we played them, we were young and inexp...
Typically, the first game of a basketball season can be pretty ugly, even when the two teams are traditional powers like Lena-Winslow and Eastland. But Monday night in Lena, while there were some stretches where nobody seemed capable of scoring, the defense and execution turned what looked like a double digit win into a last second nail biter. Eastland came out on top early on the strength of their man press, and because they were simply driving past Panther defenders to the basket. Jenna...

There are those who will say that the Blackhawk/Warren Warriors failed as they were beaten by the Edgar Wildcats in the Division 7A state championship game at Camp Randall Thursday morning by a score of 36-6. They'd be wrong. Falling in the state title contest is never easy, and right now the Warriors are probably feeling a bit down, as well as beaten up. Make no mistake, Edgar is a power. In fact, the Edgar team that beat them, had also beaten the eventual 6A champion – Stratford - by a 40-6 r...
Any Lena-Winslow football fan who is honest, will tell you that watching Panther games can be rather boring. Wondering at what point the running clock might get triggered is not what most avid football fans would call exciting. But the IHSA semi-final on Saturday in Chicago against the Hope Eagles did not follow that pattern. Let's be blunt, the Eagles were bigger, stronger, faster and overall better athletes. To be totally fair, Lena-Winslow was out-classed by them ... on paper. But the...

The coaches have made their All Conference choices, so once again it is time for our All Area Team – but this year, I wanted to do it a bit differently. Normally, I made the picks, but they were off of gut feelings from witnessing all of the games throughout the season. And while that worked, I still got arguments from friends and fans that it came across more as a "Dan's favorite" list than an actual All Area Team. So, this year, I tried something different – actually breaking down sta...
About a month ago, the Potosi/Cassville Chieftains were running all over the Blackhawk/Warren Warriors on the Warrior's home field. And, in spite of the fact that both teams were undefeated at the time they met, a very loud contingent of Warrior adults was being incredibly stupid on the sidelines – screaming at players and coaches alike – to the point where head coach, Desie Breadon, had to stop what he was doing, turn to the sideline and call them out by name – "Why don't you shut the hell...
Anybody who watches the Lena-Winslow Panthers go through their pre-game warm-ups will notice how when doing the form tackling drill, the Panthers always have the head of the tackler outside of the runner. But Annawan Weathersfield was having all of their tacklers put their head inside the runner. "Pete Carroll of the Seattle Seahawks came up with that," Panther head coach Ric Arand explained. "It's supposed to be safer, but I never bought into it. As long as you keep your head up, you're fine....

They made it interesting, but the Lena-Winslow Panthers lived up to their top seed billing with a three game win over Fulton in the Eastland Sectional semi-finals to advance on to the Championship match. Game one was almost uneventful as the Panthers opened up the early lead and extended it to 19-12 on a stuff block by Grace Groezinger that triggered the first Fulton time out. But the momentum was firmly on the Panthers die of the net as they increased the margin to 23-14 on a kill by Eden...
The magical season of the Lena-Winslow Lady Panthers came to a crashing end Wednesday night in the Sectional Championship to Galena, and the struggle is trying to put the season of this amazing group of young athletes into perspective. On the one hand, you had the scores as Lena-Winslow fell behind in game one early and continued to battle back – closing the gap and reeling the Pirates in – but the name of game one was the mistakes. The Panthers made eight unforced errors as tip shots aro...
The Forreston Cardinals are more than justified in wanting the IHSA to go to a 1-32 seeding system for the IHSA playoffs. Having to travel to Lena-Winslow in the second round wasn't much of a reward for the amazing season they played. And consider this, Forreston held the ball longer than the Panthers by nearly a 2 to 1 margin; they ran more offensive plays, had more first downs, and drew fewer penalties ... but the Panther's big-play offense proved to be the difference in a 46-14 victory in...

There was a lot to take in and enjoy at the opening night of the River Ridge Volleyball Regional Monday night, but the nightcap stole the show. Lena-Winslow got to play musical positions in their game one win over Warren, but when the Stockton Blackhawks and Scales Mound Hornets took to the court – the real magic began. Scales Mound was coming off a tremendous season in which they claimed second place in the NUIC West, reached the 20 win mark, and as coach Werner admitted, "This group brought r...
Sometimes, you have to see a game to believe what takes place in it, and even then you might walk away shaking your head. Such was the case Tuesday at the River Ridge Regional as both of the higher seeds advanced into the semi-finals, but took vastly different paths in doing so. In the opener, the Orangeville Broncos looked like they had everything well in hand as they pounded the West Carroll Thunder in game one 25-6. The Broncos were playing nearly flawlessly as they only made one unforced...
Both of the semi-finals at the River Ridge Volleyball Regional were exciting, but for different reasons as Lena-Winslow and Orangeville punched their respective tickets to make it into the finals – albeit with a lot of drama. In the opening match, Stockton was playing some exceptional defense – digging up balls that seemed impossible to dig – but the Panthers were still in control early when disaster struck. Mia Diffenderfer was making her comeback from the knee injury that sidelined her two w...
Coming into the championship match of the River Ridge 1A Volleyball Regional, the biggest question revolved around how the Panthers would address the hole on their Right side. But it was answered quickly as senior Natalie McNutt was introduced in the starting lineups. McNutt had been sick and missed Wednesday's semi-finals match in which both Mia Diffenderfer and Breanna Fye went down to injuries. "It was just something that was going around in my family, but I'm fine now," the senior said with...
Unlike years past, the opening round of the IHSA 1A football playoffs did not feature a cupcake opponent paying a visit to Lena. No, this year, due to dwindling numbers, a rather formidable traditional power – Rockford Lutheran – was the first round opponent. And while the eventual outcome on the scoreboard looked familiar, the Panthers had to put some serious work in to bring an end to the Crusader's season. On the opening kickoff, the ball rolled down to the Lutheran 22 where Gavin Sanders pic...
