South Medford Panthers Football 0-54 Willamette

Willamette handed South Medford a 54-0 defeat in Southwest Conference (6A) football on Friday night in Medford, Oregon, a result that drops the Panthers to 1-5 on the season and 0-1 in league play. The Panthers entered the game at 1-4 and were unable to generate any offense against a Willamette squad that controlled the contest from the opening drive. The 54-point margin reflected a difficult evening for South Medford on both sides of the ball, as the Panthers could not find answers for the Wolverines' attack while remaining scoreless themselves. Conference games carry added weight in the Southwest Conference standings, and Friday's result makes the road ahead a challenging one for South Medford. The Panthers will need to regroup quickly and find momentum in the weeks remaining. South Medford's next opportunity to right the ship comes next week, and the coaching staff will be looking for a response from a roster that still has time to make an impression before the season concludes.
