Great stretch of games for BRLD. A win over Ponca and a Holiday Tournament Championship win over Howells-Dodge while avenging your only loss of the season.
The Wolverines (7-1) travel to Tekamah-Herman (0-11) Friday night to take on the Tigers.
Tekamah-Herman lost 69-15 to Southern on Friday at the Nebraska Wesleyan Holiday Tournament.
This should be an easy win for BRLD.
The Wolverines have to go out there and take care of business and put the Tigers away early.
BRLD has to get the backups a good amount of experience in this game.
The Wolverines figure to be challenged by West Point-Beemer on Saturday so BRLD has to be sharp and ready to go for this one.
The Wolverines have to respect the Tigers and treat this game like they would any other.
BRLD can't take Tekamah-Herman lightly and assume they're going to win easily.
With that said, if the Wolverines do all the things necessary to win they should win easily.
BRLD has to use this game as time to work on things and fix any kinks they might have in their armor.
The Wolverines have to come out and press the Tigers to death, and get steals for easy transition baskets.
BRLD has to lay the smackdown on Tekamah-Herman and put them away.
This game has all the makings of a 40-point mercy rule running clock type game.
The Wolverines have to come out all business like and take care of business like usual.
BRLD has to continue to play championship basketball.
The Wolverines are on the road twice this weekend, and need to pick up a couple of big road wins.
BRLD has to look good and must continue to play at a high level.
The Wolverines need to keep tearing things up on both ends of the floor and keep playing well.
BRLD is in the midst of a great and dynamic season, and has to keep the ball rolling with another win Friday night.
The BRLD Girls lost 63-54 at home to Ponca on Friday, December 21st before winning 69-49 over Homer at the Howells-Dodge Holiday Tournament on Friday, and losing 83-78 to GACC in the Holiday Tournament Championship Game on Saturday.

The Wolverines outscored GACC 17-13 in the 4th quarter.
BRLD gave a great effort in all three games.
The Wolverines (7-3) take on Tekamah-Herman (3-8) on the road Friday night.
The Tigers lost 54-21 to Auburn in the 3rd place game of the Nebraska Wesleyan Holiday Tournament on Saturday.
BRLD has to continue to play the way they have offensively, and the defense has to step things up.
This is a good game for the Wolverines to figure things out defensively, and continue to polish themselves offensively.
BRLD has West Point-Beemer on the road Saturday so the Wolverines could really use a big win heading into that one.
BRLD has to be confident heading into this weekend's games.
The Wolverines also need to play with a chip on their shoulder.
BRLD has come really close to knocking off some great teams, now it's just a matter of sticking with it and finding a way to get over the hump.
The Wolverines have to come out and play a great game on Friday, and carry their great play over to Saturday.
BRLD has to get out in transition and get up and down the floor this weekend while forcing turnovers and getting easy scoring chances at the basket.
The Wolverines have to knock down free throws and rebound well as well as hustle after loose balls.
BRLD has to find something extra, especially on Saturday.
The Wolverines will have really benefited from some practice time in the gym I feel.
That probably goes for everyone, but just getting their legs back and getting in the gym to work on shooting and things of that nature should really help.
I think defense could make a big difference in Saturday's game.
I feel BRLD can win both, but it won't be easy.
The Wolverines have to shoot well both nights, and get fired up and ready to go.
It's a big weekend for BRLD, and the Wolverines have to find a way to get over that hurdle and hump.
