Attention Panther Athletes - We are continuing our morning workouts this week. As soon as the IHSA confirms their Phase 2 “Return to Play” guidelines, you will receive more updated information. We can assure that we won’t be taking any steps backwards. Those that have come have put in some awesome, dedicated, hard work and all of the coaches truly appreciate it. For those athletes that have only come once or twice, or maybe not at all yet, we’d love to have you join us. Times and locations haven’t changed - Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings from 8-9:15 in both Erie and Prophetstown on the tracks. See you tomorrow morning to start another great week. #2schools1family
