Lobo 3-pointers rain on Panthers’ hot start, propel Monahans to win

Body

An upset was brewing in Pantherland on Friday during the early stages of a heated rivalry between Fort Stockton and Monahans.

Or so it seemed when the first quarter ended and the Panthers were ahead 14-9.

Robert Brooks and Kyle Vanek had something else to say about it.

The Lobo duo scored 28 of their 30 combined points in the final three quarters of play, including five 3-pointers in the second quarter, to lead their team 57-46 victory.
