The Lady Panthers lost their final game of the regular season to Jamestown 55-41.

The Lady Eagles were led by Alli Muri with 21 points, followed by Mickayla Strother with 15. Mackenzie Strother chipped in with seven.

"I think this was the best team-ball we've played all season," Jamestown Coach E.H. Hirschvogel said. "Prairie Home's senior girls have been tough for us the last four years and I was really impressed with how they played tonight."




During the Homecoming coronation, Kim Hettinger was crowned queen; Kristen Peterson, princess; Tyler Young, king; and Kyler Fairfax, prince. The Prairie Home Cheerleaders performed during halftime of the varsity boys' game, while seniors and their parents were recognized during halftime of the varsity girls' game.

A dance followed the coronation. The theme for this year's Homecoming was "Time Warp."
