On May 23, Panorama officials announced the hiring of two new head coaches. Panorama alumnus Josh Beardsley will head up the boys basketball team, leaving his post as an assistant on Truman State’s basketball program.
“We are excited to see Josh’s impact on our boys basketball program and school district. Welcome home, Josh,” Panorama officials said in the announcement.
The boys basketball program has seen plenty of success in recent years. The team finished 13-9 last season and has posted winning records in four of the past five years.
