Benton Basketball: Benton Panthers vs. Pine Bluff Zebras

Outplayed for three and half quarters by the talented, tall and taunting Pine Bluff Zebras, the Benton Panthers out hustled and out played the Zebras the last 4:14 of the game to come away with a dramatic 1 point win. With the Panthers down by 15 points in the fourth quarter, the stands begin to empty as the Panthers began the comeback of the season.

After a tough 4:00 battle to get back in the game, the Panthers were down by only 1 point with under 15 seconds to go. After a fatal Zebra violation in the back court, the Panthers passed the ball in bounds, around the key, and down to the baseline where Eddie Poland was all alone in the corner. Instead of taking a chance on a jumper, Poland drove straight to the bucket with an easy layup on his mind… but instead, finished the drive with a dramatic one-handed dunk that rattled the entire arena. WOW!

The Benton Panthers’ one point victory over the Pine Bluff Zebras is one of the biggest highlights of the year. Eddie Poland’s dunk to win the game is destined for the highlight reels forever.
