DeWitt, MI(12/29/2023): The individual recognition from many news agencies and other groups have been announced  Click here to see the entire 2023 Indivudual Recognition page.


DeWitt, MI (02/05/2024): DeWittFootball.org would like to wish the following 2023 Panthers well next season as they jump to the collegiate level.

Rece Baker: Baker is planning to attend Sienna Heights and play football. Baker was a multi-talented and utilized player on both sides of the ball and special teams with wonderful speed. Baker was the center back in Coach Zimmerman's rush offense and handled the ball often with faking and running. He carried it , carrying it 24 times for 167 yards and two TDs his senior season. Defensively he had 9 solo tackles and 14 assists. For his career, he carried the ball 72 times for 406 yards and five touchdowns. He also had seven receptions for 48 yards. For his defensive career, he had 30 solo tackles and 26 assists.

Dominic Ryan: Ryan is planning to attend Sienna Heights and play football with Baker. "Dom" was a dominating factor on both sides of the ball for the Panthers. He was tackle in DeWitt's unique three down lineman defensive scheme and often had two and three players trying to block him. And he may have run over a few running backs as well. His senior season saw him garner 18 solo and 21 tackles. As an offensive tackle, he was instrumental in the Panthers success with a number of records on the school chart, including game rushing against Fenton in the 2023 playoffs, total yards in a game, first downs in a season and game and total yards in a season.



DeWitt, MI (02/05/2024): The 2024 season schedule has been announced and looks to be an exciting. Many old foes, newer foes and brand new foe.
(As of this writing. Locations forthcoming.)

Week One: Thursday, August 29.  Haslett. The Panthers will play an old foe in the Haslett Vikings. DeWitt and Haslett have played 49 times over the years, the most DeWitt has played. They played many times as a non-conference game when the Panthers were in the old Capital Circuit League and Haslett was in the Ingham County League. DeWitt joined the ICL in 1988. Leave the flags at home.

Week Two: Friday, September 6,  Mason. The Panthers lost twice to Mason with their once in a generation senior laden team last season. However, the Bulldogs return All-State QB Carson Carswell and a number of returning players. The Panthers rolled with 914 total yards of offense in the two games but had trouble putting it into the end zone.

Week Three: Friday, September 13.  Waverly. The Warriors slide up the conference schedule from last to first this season in a CAAC rotation. Last season the Panther D was able to limit the dangerous Warriors to 49 yards rushing.

Week Four: Friday, September 20. Home vs Hurricane High School. Wait... What?? You've never heard of Hurricane High School? With DeWitt unable to locate a school in Michigan to play, the Panthers will host the Hurricane Redskins from WEST VIRGINIA. Are they any good you ask? Yup. 8-3 last season and scored a lot of points. Much more on Hurricane (Hurr a can) coming.

Week Five:  East Lansing. The Trojans edged DeWitt last season for the CAAC Blue 40-34 despite DeWitt rolling up 503 yards of offense. The Trojans passed for 331 yards and three touchdowns.

Week Six: Holt. The Panthers defeated Holt handily last season on a very unusual down year for the Rams.

Week Seven: Grand Ledge. The Comets and Panthers played a barn burner last season, with DeWitt coming out on top 41-38. DeWitt scored half way through the 4th quarter and held on for the win.

Week Eight: Okemos. The Panthers defeated the Chiefs for their homecoming handily last season on a very dark and stormy night.

Week Nine: Everett. The Vikings passed for 243 yards last season against DeWitt but the Panthers prevailed with their ground game. Trav Moore scored two rushing TDs, a passing TD and ran a kick off back 88 yards.
