We have been requested to be at Illini Middle School at 8am this Tuesday, May 31st, to help load and move again. Please make every effort to be there. It is another great "opportunity" to serve our district and display our character! It's things like this that make us SPECIAL!!!

FROM 

COACH JACOBS

Hello All-

As the summer approaches, it is a necessity that we get our practice field in shape.  We are starting to put treatments down to help the current practice field conditions. So--Sunday Gatherings and Open Field Sessions are cancelled as of today.  We want to make sure we have the best facility available when Summer Opportunities start in June.  Please stay off the grass.  We will also be doing some renovations to the inside of the Complex as well. 

Pending school board approval, Camp/Opportunity forms will be available soon.  Please look for them via e-mail and at each school. 

The energy and enthusiasm is high.  I can't wait to actually move and start having some fun!

Contact me with questions.

Let's be special!!!!!!!

Thanks!!

SINCLAIRS 

MR. PANTHER AWARD

This award is presented to the Panther player who best displayed dedication, Integrity and Loyalty for the sake of his team. 

2010 Winner:

Jason Hamilton

JCHS Football Hall of Fame

1928

1928 was a struggle to find game articles, but alas pantherfb.org dug deep into the archives of the old and now defunct Jersey County Democrat. Although the material shows it's age and is very hard to read, most of the game stories are more detailed than those from previous years. Notice that the author of most of these stories was Frederick Miller a Sophomore. Miller, joined the Varsity football team in 1929 as a Junior and also played in 1930 while a Senior. He was a very special young man and gets a special salute from this website for all he accomplished for our football program.

PANTHERS BEST IN HISTORY

Blue and White Miss Title Tie By One Point

Sept. 10 Panthers maul Pleasant Hill in non-conference season opener, showing strong passing attack of Davis to Waggoner and Landon... Sept. 24 blue and White find touch going against strong Wildcat eleven. Thurston's defensive work saves the day for Jerseyville...Oct. 1 Jersey eleven tramples Carrollton. Old rivals find shifty Bailey's speed and glue-fingered Waggoner hard to stop...Oct. 8 Jerseyville shows real power in downing fast Maroon crew. The outstanding line-play of Roger Bailey, Bridgewater, and Landon bottles up big White Hall squad...Oct. 15 Blue and White again score convincing victory over Winchester. White's defensive work along with hard-running Bell keep Wildcats reeling...Oct. 22 Title hopes fall as a strong Pittsfield team edges fighting panthers over disputed extra point. Bailey's speed and powerful running along with Hewitt's great tackles keep Saukee Braves hard pressed... Oct. 29 Panthers slash back to defeat Roodhouse for first time in history. Old jinx is broken as Davis' accurate passing, Bell's hard driving, and Waggoner's pass-receiving make things look easy...Nov. 5 Panthers clinch second place by drubbing Greenfield's fast improved team. Husky Jim Warford shows Tigers how it's done as Bridgewater proves himself to be a promising back... Nov. 12 Subs see plenty of action as Panthers sour Pleasant Hill in a one-sided afternoon duel. Scrubs take it out on hapless Hilltoppers as Jerseyville ends its most successful season.
