I was able to attend the Yellville vs. Valley Springs basketball game on Tuesday, January 28, 2025. (I was only able to be there for the boys’ game). While the Panthers lost a close game, I was very proud and impressed by the entire environment. The players were fundamentally sound, in shape, played hard and were very well coached. They had a great attitude, displayed good sportsmanship, and didn’t argue with the referees.
