The Panthers of Pine Prairie continued to pick up quality wins while competing at the Oberlin High School Tournament. They not only defeated parish rival Mamou and district rival Church Point, but also crushed the host team to earn the tournament title.
Mamou played in one of the toughest districts in Class 2A. It was a district that sent nearly every team to the post-season and even the state champion came out their district. Kinder won the Class 2A State Championship.
Pine Prairie improved to 13-4 right before the Christmas Break kicked in. The Panthers did so by defeating the Plainview Hornets 65-51. The win came in front of the Pine Prairie fans at the PPHS gym.
