A Homecoming victory

It was a great evening for the Homecoming game as the Panthers took on the Lennox Orioles Friday, Sept. 30. Dakota Valley ended the month with a solid victory as they outscored their opponent 47-- 24. Lennox struck first as their quarterback passed to an open man very early in the 1st quarter, but the point after kick was no good. The Panthers answered when Senior Ethan Anema found fellow senior Jaxon Hennies for a completed touchdown pass. Hennies fended off a tackle to push through to the end zone and get the score. The extra point (PAT) kick was good by Ethan Christiansen to put the Panthers up 7-6. Senior Randy Rosenquist ran back a punt in the 1st quarter to score another 6 points for Dakota Valley. Christiansen was once again solid for the PAT and the Panthers were up 14-6. However, the Orioles were able to respond as their quarterback connected with the same receiver from earlier to score again. The PAT was good this time for Lennox and the 1st quarter ended with Dakota Valley leading 14-13. Junior Trae Piel ran in the Panther’s 3rd touchdown of the evening in the 2nd quarter. Piel also recovered a fumble to keep the Panthers in control. The next score for Dakota Valley occurred as Anema headed to the end zone with the ball, but had it knocked out. The fumble was recovered by Owen Hanshaw for another Panther touchdown. A Lennox injury halted the game with 1:40 left in the 1st half. When play resumed, Senior Lake Kistner had a blocked punt to give the Panthers good field position. However, an interception on an Anema to Hennies pass attempt almost caused trouble for the Panthers. But, Anema showed grit and chased down the interceptor to force him out of bounds and end the half with no damage done. The Panthers led 28-13 at half.
