The Panama City Panthers fell to the Huntsville Rockets ending their winning streak ahead of charity game.
Panama City Panthers semi-pro football team lost their winning streak on Saturday after being defeated by the Huntsville Rockets with a score of 34-0 in the GridIron Developmental Football League.

In the second quarter, running back Chandler Pat added a 35-yard touchdown run, extending Huntsville's advantage to 20-0 by halftime.
