Synopsis
“If you liked the movie ‘Hoosiers’ and enjoy high school basketball, this book is for you.” These are the words of U.S. Senator Sam Nunn, a former Perry High basketball star and All-State performer on Perry’s 1956 state championship team. “Pride of the Panthers” tells the legendary story of Perry High School, which during the decades of the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s, became the greatest high school basketball dynasty in Georgia History. Its coach, Eric P. Staples, was the winningest high school basketball coach in America. His teams captured a phenomenal 83 percent of their games, including 25 district/region championships and eight state titles. Assistant coach Paul Hartman took over the coaching reins after Coach Staples retired and promptly led his 1966 Perry team to a ninth and unprecedented state championship. The book is an eye-witness account by Billy Powell and takes the reader year-by-year, from the 1933 season through the 1969 season, replete with team rosters, team photos, and team won-loss records. Also included are box scores and reporting commentary for pivotal regular season games and tournament competition. Read the game-by-game accounts and learn firsthand how the coaching genius of Coach Staples consistently pulled victory from defeat in game-after-game over a 32 year span.
