What a nail-biter for the Panther Girls Basketball team last night as they played Huntsville.  It was a one-point victory for the Panthers with a final score of 48-47. 

Here's the update from Coach Sharp:

"We were up 41 38 with 0.6 left & it was their ball underneath.  They had time for catch & shoot.  We defended the 3 point line well—they caught, ripped the ball, dribbled, took a step and launched it (all in 0.6 ) and it went in to send it to overtime .  We fought hard-had to press, foul, etc.  They hit a FT to put them up 2 & missed the 2^nd one.  Our ball with about 12 seconds left.  Emery Rakestraw hit a 3 at the buzzer to give us a 1 point win!!!!  48-47!"
"With us losing at Greenbrier Friday, that put us in 3^rd with Huntsville right behind us.  If they would have won, they would have had the tie-breaker on us.  So. . . it was huge as far as playoff implications for us to win that one."  Coach Debbie Sharp, 2/8/12

CONGRATULATIONS!  GO PANTHERS
