Jan 19 2030: History Made! - by thesystem122 on January 18th, 2023

Following a 71-55 road win over Kentucky, the Greenville Panthers received a national ranking for the first time in program history. The #25 Panthers look to stay hot as they travel to take on Eastern in their next matchup.


Mar 31 2029: Bailey Wills Greenville To Title Game - by thesystem122 on December 14th, 2022

The Greenville Panthers improbably have reached the DII national championship game, knocking off a heavily favored Illinois team thanks to an unbelievable performance from Benny Bailey. The senior forward scored 40 points and collected 12 rebounds, along with 2 steals and 3 blocks.

The 86-74 win adds another chapter to a special journey for this team. Coach Sterling Wilson attributes their postseason play to the players being able to relax without the added pressure of promotion to D1 that they faced in conference play. As has been the story all tournament, the Panthers stepped up in crunch time, ending the game on a 20-8 run after Illinois tied it with 9 minutes remaining.

Bailey commented that he "won't bask in the glory until the job is done" but recognized how special of a run it has been for him and his squad. Bailey has averaged 25.8 points and 9.0 rebounds in 5 games, and Greenville would be nowhere close to this point without his contributions.

The Panthers will attempt to put the perfect ending on a wonderful season, as they are set to play #1 seeded Wisconsin-Parkside for the DII championship. Why not?

Feb 20 2027: Greenville Runs Wild Behind Martin's Historic Performance - by thesystem122 on August 11th, 2022

Greenville notched a much needed win over Seton Hall with a 108-96 victory at home. Despite losing out on player of the game honors due to Sydney Norman's 20 points and career high 19 boards, senior PG Cassius Martin stole the show with an eye-popping 17 assists, the most by a Panther in at least 16 years. Martin credited the achievement to his teammates, saying "we did a great job running the floor and making it easy to find the next pass."

Martin also scored 18 points on 8-12 shooting, and 6 of the dimes led to three pointers, which adds up to 58 points that he either scored or assisted.

Along with this, Greenville put up 33 fast break points, which is believed to be their most ever. The quintet of Norman, Martin, Curt Koch, Greg Hawes, and Greg Liles combined for 92 points in the win.
