With speed and accuracy Coach Cordova built a team that finished the season with a 25-2 record. basketball The Panthers won the conference championship with an out- standing record of 19 wins and one loss. They won the district 9 tournament and also the play-off at district 10, thus winning a berth in the state tournament. In the state tournament the panthers won the first two games, lost the championship game to Rye, Colorado, but regardless of the loss we are very proud of our state runner-up team.
