This fall will mark my 15th year in the field of journalism (sports in particular) and I have been racking my brain to think of an athletic year that has been as successful for the teams that I have covered.

Another team, the Magnet Cove Lady Panthers track team finished just four points shy of the state championship.

On Monday, the Magnet Cove Lady Panthers softball team was running a gamut of emotions from shock to jubilation to downright confidence.
And why not? Just two days prior, on Saturday, May, 18, the Lady Panthers won the 2A state softball championship in a game that could only be described as pure domination.
Their motto for the last couple of years has been “We Own The Dirt,” and that has been more than evident this season.
In Magnet Cove’s 10 postseason games, they allowed a total of two runs, and close to as many hits.
