The Raiders won the third quarter 18-8 to go up 59-27 at the end of three.

Haber appears to be the only one that came to play against both the Raiders and Eagles judging by the way he and others played.
The Tigers (1-6) take on BDS (6-0) at the Nebraska Wesleyan Holiday Tournament.
The Eagles defeated Cross County 42-39 on the road Friday night after beating Deshler 52-46 at home last Tuesday night.
BDS may be a D-1 school, but they are still a very good team.
Tekamah-Herman figures to have their hands full, and someone besides Haber is going to have to step up and score.
The Tigers have to be much better offensively and defensively if they want to compete with and ultimately beat the Eagles.
Tekamah-Herman has to take this time off during the five-day moratorium to work on individual skills and shooting.
It's important for these Tiger plays to remain active over the Holiday Break.
A couple of hours of working out, shooting, and scrimmaging per day will no doubt help get this team ready for the Nebraska Wesleyan Holiday Tournament.
There are some good teams in this tournament, and Tekamah-Herman is going to have to play at a very high level to compete.
This team is capable of playing well though. Tekamah-Herman has looked decent at times this season, and is due to break out, in my opinion.
The Tekamah-Herman Girls are 2-0 in their last two games, defeating Logan View/Scribner-Snyder 51-31 at home Friday night and Arlington 54-38 on the road Saturday.
The Tigers led the Raiders 12-7 after one. Tekamah-Herman tripled up Logan View/Scribner-Snyder 12-4 in the second quarter to take a 24-11 lead at halftime.
The Tigers won the third quarter 10-7 to go up 34-18 at the end of three.

Jess Fleischmann led the way with 13 points. Marin Jetensky added 11 while Allie Snow scored 10.
The Tigers led the Eagles 14-5 at the end of one. Arlington won the second quarter 15-14 to make it a 28-20 game at halftime.
Tekamah-Herman outscored the Eagles 15-6 in the third quarter to go up 43-26 at the end of three.
Arlington put up 12 fourth quarter points compared to 11 for the Tigers.
Tekamah-Herman played at a high level last week. The Tigers had two very winnable games, and took care of business, and didn't disappoint.
Tekamah-Herman (5-2) battles BDS (6-0) at the Nebraska Wesleyan Holiday Tournament in Lincoln.
The Eagles downed Cross County 44-14 on the road Friday night after downing Deshler 49-38 at home last Tuesday night.
BDS is good, but they're a D-1 school, and given the sort of talent the Tigers have, it should be a Tekamah-Herman victory.
You always worry about being fresh when coming off the five-day moratorium, but I don't think that will be an issue for the Tigers.
Tekamah-Herman's players need to be in the gym an hour or two each day during the five-day moratorium to stay sharp.
It's important for the Tigers to stay fresh and be in practice over the moratorium period.
There is some quality competition in this tournament, but I believe Tekamah-Herman is just as good, if not better, than any of these teams.
The majority of the teams in the tournament are D-1 or lower so that should be to the Tigers' benefit.
Tekamah-Herman will still be tested, I don't think there's any doubt about that, but I think the Tigers are in good position to be successful in this tournament.
