Panther Boys Basketball

The 2024-25 Panther boys basketball season featured young underclassmen filling big roles with a brand new head coach in Shane Traughber. Concordia, with all of the adversity, ended the year with a 14-8 record and lost in the sub-state championship game to the eventual state champion McPherson Bullpups. Now with a coach entering his second season and several returning players with varsity experience, the 2025-26 season will be one to watch!

Panther Girls Basketball

The 2024-25 Panther girls' basketball season featured a key injury. Senior Captain Taylor McDaniel was injured early in the volleyball season and missed the rest of her senior high school sports career. Despite this critical loss, the Panthers battled through the tough league schedule with only two Seniors and a young group overall. Concordia finished with a 5-16 overall record and lost in the first round of sub-state at Andale, a tournament team. The 2025 Panthers will feature several key returning players with lots of varsity experience. Below is the 202-26 season schedule with tip-offs at approximately 6 pm:
