The most awesome team this side of the Greenwich time line. A second place ranking in state play and a 23-7 record were the products of the 72+ 7+ 4 rule. Camps allow us to perfect our funda- mentals and they give us good playing experience, explained Camille Harden. The Lady Panthers attended four camps over the summer. They went undefeated at the Chuck Miller and Southern Tech summer camps, and won the champion- ship at both. Senior, Lisa Rowell was named most valuable player at the Chuck Miller camp.
