Racine Park Panthers Can't Pull Out Win Despite 3rd Quarter Push

After Milwaukee King led by 21 at the half, Park came out hard in the 3rd quarter, but couldn't maintain the momentum.

Despite a hard push during the third quarter, the Racine Park Panthers just couldn't hold Milwaukee King. The Generals took the win Saturday and the sectional title with a final score of 71-56.

After a slow start that left them down by 21 at the half, the Racine Park Panthers came out hard for the third quarter. They cut King's lead to six and seemed poised to perhaps pull out another surprise win, similar to their 56-50 win over Milwaukee Hamilton last Thursday.

Unfortunately, Park couldn't keep up the momentum and they fell, clearing the way for Milwaukee King to advance to the WIAA state tournament in Madison next weekend.
