What an atmosphere at River Valley last night, with two aggressive, physical teams and a wild crowd urging them on. And River Valley came from behind to get a win in the District 6 Triple-A quarterfinals. Todd Marino has the story.
Panthers coach Rick Spallone was thrilled…and exhausted.
Spallone said there was some rust after the Panthers endured a long layoff after the Heritage Conference championships. But he says that’s typical at this time of the year.
The coach says his team didn’t panic and made the necessary adjustments after they fell behind.
