(25News Now) - Washington senior linebacker Eli Papis is an impact defender for the state quarterfinal-bound Panthers. He’s making up for the time he lost during his junior season.
In week 5, Papis got hurt, tearing tendons in his ankles. He then tried to play on it, which he admits was not the right decision. The injury forced him to have surgery and miss the remainder of the season.
