Panthers fall short in bid for state basketball title
The 1973 Elyria Catholic Panthers, Lorain County's lone state berth contender besides Elyria High, saw a miraculous playoff run end in Columbus. After a 24-win season and wins in two one-point games, the Panthers lost the regional final to fall just short of the Class AA championship, despite strong showings from Russ Sherman and a tough defense that held rivals without a basket for stretches.
