Body
Leading up to Friday’s 4A-2 bi-district playoff game against Perryton, first-year Fort Stockton head coach Jeremy Hickman had a simple, yet impactful message for his team, “fight for 10.” The second 10-win season in school history was on the line in the contest and the Panthers had to do just that to cement their legacy in the record books. Fort Stockton fell behind 7-0 on the first play from scrimmage and rallied behind a turnoverfree offense and a dominant performance in the trenches on both sides of the ball to get a 20-14 victory.
