Amazing win for the Panthers!

Bancroft-Rosalie (2-3) hosts Pender (2-3) Friday night.

The Pendragons won 68-22 at GACC last week.

Head Coach Kyle Elsasser talks about the keys to picking up another big win.

It certainly sounds like a very tall task and huge challenge for the Panthers, but they can definitely do it.

Bancroft-Rosalie has won their last two games after dropping their first three. Coach Elsasser says the kids’ confidence has really grown over the past couple of weeks.

Bancroft-Rosalie has to get jacked and fired up for this one.

The Panthers have to jump in a huddle before the game and have guys flying around at the top of the pile.

It sounds like the pride and tradition of Bancroft-Rosalie Football is back, and the Panthers have to go out there and ball out Friday night.

The Panthers have to play well defensively and fly around and limit Pender’s explosive plays and playmakers on offense to come out on top in this one.
