Baseball/ Basketball writer
PIKESVILLE-- The Panthers lost to the Landsdowne Vikings on Wednesday night, 49-48. The starters of the game were guards, Dominique Spruill, Deondre Jackson, Freddie Sellers, Devohn Gilmore, and forward Rasheed Salau. It was a new look to the Panthers. Coach JaMarr Jackson then put in all five new players. Coach Jackson was trying out some new "teams", such as the Big Team that includes: Ian Lee. Rasheed Salau, Jarell Cox, Alfonzo Timmons, and Devohn Gilmore. In the Panthers first game of 2009, Gilmore made a splash, dropping 20 points, to lead all scorers. Doendre Jackson added 6, and Freddie Sellers, 3. Sellers also was the only Panther to foul out of the game. Rasheed Salau was a monster on the boards, he had 4 points. Jarell Cox was a force in the low paint, moving defenders aside, Jarell had 10 points. At the end of the game the Officials made some bad calls, or lack there of, such as an obvious charge against Dominique Spruill. When the game ended, the Officials were 'booed' off the court, and the gym was swiftly emptied. As a team the Panthers made half of their foul shots (4/8) and took a total of 21 shots. The Vikings were led by Brent Arrington and Patton LaGuerre, both with 12 points. The Panthers look to bounce back this Friday at home against the Carver Wildcats at 7 p.m.
