ReitzFootball.com

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.

Reitz 35, Central 28

The Panthers’ sectional first round game with Central started eerily similar to last week’s loss to Mater Dei. In both games, Reitz trailed, 14-0, early in the game. And just like last week, the Panthers were able to tie it up at 14. Both games then went back and forth, but unlike last week’s defeat, …
