Delcambre wants to continue magical year

Thu, 11/11/2021 - 1:23pm

DELCAMBRE - The 2021 Delcambre Panther football team may not be a team of destiny, but it will go down in history for many different reasons.
For one thing, there was the upset win over Catholic High in the fourth week of the season, the first time that DHS beat CHS since the 1990’s
Secondly, there is the fact that Delcambre finished the regular season with a winning record for the first time since joining the Class 2A ranks in 2011 and for the first time as a Class 2A school. DHS was briefly a member of Class 2A in the 1980s.
