As the season drew to a close, however, head coach Ben DeLuca told Pannell it was time to start asserting himself in the offense. He finally got full confidence back in his injured foot in the week leading up to Cornell's last regular season game, and with the offense again running through him, Pannell and the Big Red feel that he is back to his true form...
