#ReitzFootballFriday Week 2 presented by Tracy Zeller Jewelry

After crossing the Ohio River last Friday night and winning their season opener over Henderson County, 34-13, the Mighty Panthers will once again venture back into the Bluegrass State for Week 2.

Reitz will meet perennial Kentucky powerhouse Paducah Tilghman. The Blue Tornado (0-1) fell to McCracken County (Ky.) last Friday, 49-21, and are 0-2 all-time against the Panthers, so the Kentuckians are definitely looking to pick up their first win of the year and the series.

Tilghman stats
Obviously, one game is not sufficient to gauge who a team’s stars will be, but for what it’s worth, here’s who to look out for with the Blue Tornado.

Keep your eyes on their quarterback, #12 Jessie Dunigan. He completed 6-of-17 passes, but threw for one touchdown and picked up another one by rushing, where he totaled 71 yards.

Another player to look out for is #25 Djuan Sherrill, who picked up 81 rushing yards and led the defense with four tackles.

Dan Engler's love for Reitz Football goes back a long time. Engler played for the Panthers all four years of high school and graduated in 1996.
That summer, as the popularity of the Internet began to explode, Engler's search for Reitz Football information came up empty, so his father suggested he create a website. Engler taught himself HTML and launched the Unofficial Reitz High School Football Home Page that August.
Since then, Engler, through ReitzFootball.com, has spent the past 25 years chronicling the rich history and tradition of Reitz High School Football.
Engler and his wife, Melissa, have two sons, Logan and Micah, and a daughter, Juliette. Engler has traveled all over the world but is proud to call Evansville his home.
