The Panthers struggled to put away Clark County, Tuesday, coming out with a tough 48-42 win.

Palmyra managed to score just two points, a two-pointer by Bear Bock, in the first quarter, and trailed 17-14 at the half before going into the final quarter tied at 34.

Bock sank three field goals and a free throw to help lead Palmyra’s 14-8 run to win the game.

Bock finished with a game-high 19 points on eight field goals and three charity shots.
