PORTAL — The first win is always the hardest. At least that’s what Portal is hoping after a comeback in the final minutes of last Friday’s game in Millen notched a 29-26 victory over Jenkins County for the Panthers’ first win of the season and the first of Cherard Freeman’s head coaching career. Portal (1-6, 1-3 Region 3-A) needs to get right back in gear this week as it travels to Wheeler County (2-5, 1-3) for a game that has — wait for it — postseason implications.
