Michael Perry’s Panthers made a huge splash last season, quickly rebuilding from a 3-win team in 2021 to a second round 8-4 team. Union County had new players emerge at the skill positions, including Caiden Tanner at QB, Jensen Goble at WR, Braylen Rader and Connor Schuknecht at RB, as well as Lane Lance on the defensive side of the ball. All those young men are back and will be a force to be reckoned with.

Union County released its 2023 schedule. So here it is, along with a breakdown and game-by-game (exclusive) look and prediction.
