  • 2012 Student-Athlete of the Year award: Sergio Pascual

  • Struggles at the plate lead to 4-1 loss to Grant

    A combination of missed opportunities and pure bad luck stymied the baseball Panthers’ offense Wednesday, May 9.

    Head coach Josh Mefford called the game a “tough loss,” especially since the Panthers defeated the Braves 11-1 on opening day.
