When the HFCS Panthers boys basketball team took to the court Monday evening against the Tamarac Bengals, it was their first time on the hardwood for the 2014-15 season. By comparison, many teams have played as many as five or six games up to this point. As of Wednesday afternoon, Hoosic Valley is 5 – 0, the Panthers are 1 – 0. Hoosic Valley played Wednesday evening, so when the Panthers and Indians meet Friday, Hoosic Valley will have played six games to the Panthers’ one. The Panthers’ game against Cohoes was cancelled due to storm conditions, and last Friday’s game against Tamarac was postponed due to a power outage at Tamarac and rescheduled for Monday.
