So far, so good for the Powell High School basketball teams: the Panthers and Lady Panthers each won their opening matches at the Class 3A West regional tournament in Jackson on Thursday.
The PHS girls came from behind late to claim a 29-24 overtime victory over Mountain View. They scored the last 12 points for the win. Powell, seeded fourth, advances to play Cody, the No. 1 seed, at 4 p.m. Friday. The Lady Panthers will be looking to avenge their narrow 51-45 loss to the Fillies last Saturday; they also played Cody oh-so-close in a 23-22 heartbreaker on Jan. 13.
Powell's No. 1-seeded boys, meanwhile, clobbered No. 8-seeded Pinedale 76-30 in Thursday morning action. They'll play Lyman, the No. 4 seed, at 5:30 p.m. Friday. Lyman and Powell split their two contests in the regular season, PHS winning a 51-48 decision on the road on Jan. 7, LHS nabbing a 53-52 win on Feb. 10.
Regional tournament brackets for the boys and girls are available at WHSAA.org.
