2022 Record: 6-5
Season Result: lost to L.C. Bird 23-15
Head Coach: Timothy Jean-Pierre, 3rd season (15-8)
Returning Starters: 12
Of Note: Panther alumnus Jean-Pierre has brought a stability to the program after they had four coaches in four seasons before and through Covid. Ben Yeanay, who is just a sophomore, will take over as a dual threat quarterback for the departed Karon Burton (Bluefield). They must also replace RB/LB Jeremiah Coney (Virginia Tech) and several other multi-year starters but Jean-Pierre is happy with the excitement about opportunity up and down the roster. Their first big test comes immediately as they open with Oscar Smith.
