The Tekamah-Herman Boys lost 78-38 at home to DC West last Friday night and then the season came to an end Monday night as the Tigers lost 54-26 to Fort Calhoun in the C1-6 Sub-District Play-in Game at Oakland-Craig.
The Falcons led the Tigers 23-8 at the end of one before winning the second quarter 20-12 to go up 43-20 at halftime.
DC West outscored Tekamah-Herman 23-10 in the third quarter to lead 66-30 at the end of three.
The Falcons put up 12 points in the fourth quarter compared to 8 for the Tigers.
The Pioneers led 19-1 at the end of one. Both teams scored 12 points in the second quarter, and the score was 31-13 at halftime in favor of Fort Calhoun.
The Pioneers outscored Tekamah-Herman 18-8 in the third quarter to go up 49-21 at the end of three.
Both teams scored 5 points in the fourth quarter.
Clay Beaumont scored 12 points for the Tigers.
Tekamah-Herman played right with Fort Calhoun for two quarters. Unfortunately, the other two quarters didn't treat the Tigers very well.
Tekamah-Herman finishes the season 0-19.
The highlights of the season for the Tigers had to be the close losses to Clarkson/Leigh (twice), Pender, and Friend.
It was a long and tough season for Tekamah-Herman, but I think it's safe to say the Tigers never quit.
Tekamah-Herman says goodbye to three seniors in Nate Olson, Dustin Pickell, and Colton-Morrow-Merrill.
Key returners include Brady Ball, Beaumont, and Luke Wakehouse.
From what I've heard the Tigers have some kids coming up and will be able to play a full JV schedule next year.
That's good news for Tekamah-Herman, who could really benefit from playing a full JV schedule, in my opinion.
I think the future looks good and bright for Tiger Boys Basketball.
These returning players and newcomers just have to put in the work necessary to be successful.
Everyone has to do their part in the offseason by working hard and participating in open gyms, weightlifting sessions, summer leagues, and summer camps.
The more basketball and conditioning these kids participate in, the better off they're going to be.
Everyone has to be committed to improving and growing and prospering as young men and student athletes.
Hopefully with an entire year to grow and mature Tekamah-Herman will be primed and ready for better things in 2017-2018.
I would say one thing is for sure....things can only go up from here.
