Elizabethtown Panthers … it’s almost that time 🏈 🐾
16 weeks until the lights come on, the pads start popping, and Panther Stadium is rocking on Friday nights! The 2026 schedule is HERE
Who’s ready to pack the stands?
Tonight, the lights at Panther Stadium shined a little brighter.
At 7:30 PM, we turned them on in honor and remembrance of legendary Head Coach Larry French — a man who meant so much to Kentucky High School Football.
💪 WORKHORSES OF THE WEEK 💪
Shoutout to Jackson Tipson and Cias Banister for bringing the energy, discipline, and grind to the weight room this week. This is what it takes to build something special. 🐾 🏈

As an AD, I implemented a strength program where every athlete lifts in season with their current team. I challenged coaches to scientifically prove it was not beneficial. No one could.
It eliminated the tug of war over athletes and reinforced what we believe.
Tonight, we had the honor of recognizing Mr. Hade Durbin, who will be inducted into the 5th Region Athletic Directors Hall of Fame on March 7 during the Girls’ Basketball Region Tournament at Central Hardin.
Thank you, Mr. Durbin, for your lasting impact on Elizabethtown and athletics across Kentucky as a coach and official - a true example of Panther Pride and a lifetime of service to student-athletes. 🐾🏆 #PantherPride #TraditionofExcellence #GoBigE
Went by Elizabethtown today and met with Head Coach Tyler Mattingly. The 4A Panthers went 8-4 last season, and have a number of players coming back! #FeedTheStuds#UKFootball#BBN@EtownFB @tm_squared
