His classmate, Rohan Kasthuri, added an assist as the Panthers improve to 4-3 overall, 1-1 in the Big 8 Conference. It was the first goal of the season for Anderson. Kasthuri has a team-high six assists. Two years ago, Anderson and Kasthuri were sophomores as Orange defeated Jacksonville in the 3A State Playoffs. Now, with the Cedar Ridge game coming up Wednesday, the Panthers want to return to the state playoffs. Last season, Cedar Ridge and Orange split the season series, with each squad claiming road victories over the other. Orange travels to Cedar Ridge Wednesday night at 6:45.
