HALL OF FAME CLASS OF 2025 - VIRTUAL HALL OF FAME
As part of our halftime celebration, we are excited to welcome the Hanover College Athletic Hall of Fame Class of 2025 - Mackenzie Dye Conley '15 (Cross Country, Track & field), K.C. Reynolds DeBra '05 (Women's Soccer) and the late Gary Fricke '77 (Football).

Mackenzie Dye Conley '15 (Cross Country, Track & field)
A four-time all-Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference honoree in cross country, Conley posted three top-seven finishes in the league meet. In track, she was a two-time HCAC champion in the outdoor 10,000 meters, winning titles in 2012 and 2014, and earned the conference's 5,000-meter indoor crown in 2014 with a record-setting performance (18:14.86).

Gary Fricke '77 (Football)
A four-year starter at offensive tackle on the football team squad, Fricke helped the Panthers post four consecutive Hoosier-Buckeye Collegiate Conference championships and set the school record with 28 straight regular-season victories. He was a second-team all-American in 1976 and earned all-district and all-league honors as a junior and senior. He also wrestled for one season - during his junior year - and helped the Panthers post a 10-2-1 overall record.

K.C. Reynolds DeBra '05 (Women's Soccer) 
A two-time all-Heartland Conference honoree, DeBra ranks among the top goal scorers in Hanover's women's soccer history. She totaled a then-record 48 career goals from 2001-04. She set the Panthers' single-season mark with 14 goals as a sophomore, then followed with 21 goals during the 2003 season. That fall, she was named the HCAC's player of the year.
 
ONE WEEK AGO
The Hanover Panthers kicked off the 2025 season with a trip to Centre College. The two teams met for the 52nd time with the Colonels winning the contest 23-15.
 
Junior Eian Roudebush (New Palestine, Ind.) piloted the passing attack, throwing for 170 yards on 14 completions and a touchdown. He also added a team-high 51 rushing yards and a score.
 
Sophomore Jack Pennington (Seymour, Ind.) was the top target, hauling in six receptions for 76 yards and a touchdown.
 
Defensively, sophomore Brian Wall (Sellersburg, Ind.) recorded seven combined tackles, while senior Garron Jenkins (Greenville, Ind.) and senior Billy Blevins (Carmel, Ind.) brought the backfield pressure with a half sack each.
 
LAST TRIP TO BUTLER
Hanover and Butler squared off a season ago as the Panthers hit the road for the Sellick Bowl in Indianapolis, Ind. The Bulldogs of Butler were victorious despite a strong defensive performance from the Panthers.
 
Brian Wall paced the effort, recording double-digit tackles (13), including an impressive eight solo stops.
 
ON THE ROAD AGAIN
The Hanover Panthers hit the road for Alma next Saturday, as part of a three-game road stint. The Panthers and Scouts will kickoff at 1:00 PM.
