(KJCT) - History may be repeating itself in Delta, where the Panthers are already in elite company and are now 10-0 after a 28-6 win over the University Bulldogs in their first game of the 2A playoffs.Delta is one of just 13 high school football teams in Colorado that are currently undefeated. The Panthers went 9-0 in the regular season, which earned them a bye in the first round.The last time Delta went undefeated in the regular season was 2023, when the team won a state championship.Delta hosted its first playoff opponent, University, and looked to keep doing what it has done all season.Things got in gear right out of the gate. University tried to land a sucker punch with an onside kick to start the game, but Hunter Hines was right there to fall on it.The Panthers took that opportunity to the goal line. Mack Lockhart, seventh in the state in rushing touchdowns, added another on the first points of the game.The Bulldogs, from Greeley, looked for a response and elected to run a sweep. Delta snuffed it out. The Panthers had allowed more than 7 points in only three of their nine games entering play.Delta got right back on the attack, this time through the air. Cole Morlan, under center, threw over the middle to Evandyn March, who is listed at 6-foot-6. March got into the end zone for a touchdown, and Delta doubled its lead.The calendar says November, but on that play it was March.In the second quarter, a rare fumble by Panthers back Scott Floyd put Greeley in good position to score. The Delta defense, led by Floyd, bounced back. Floyd wrapped up Henson Doss for a loss, and Delta took the ball back.Facing a third down, the Panthers dialed up some trickeration. They ran a fake handoff into a sweep, and Alex Ryan got loose with nothing but green grass ahead of him. The play gave Delta the conversion and kept the drive alive.The Panthers used a hurry-up offense before the half and went to the goal line, where they out-willed the Bulldogs. Morlan carried it in for Delta’s third trip to the end zone of the half.Delta went to the locker room up 21-0 on the way to the 28-6 win.In his first year as head coach, Todd Casebier has the Panthers at 10-0. Delta will host the Eaton Reds in a week, at the same time and place.</div></body>
