A tough ending to a tough season for the Tigers.
Tekamah-Herman ends the season at 2-21.
The highlights of the year were the wins over Clarkson/Leigh and Whiting, IA.
Just the fact that the Tigers won a couple of games is a promising and encouraging sign.
The wins are something to build on heading into next season.
Tekamah-Herman says goodbye to Alex Camp, Cameron Douglas, and Tyler Petersen.
Key returners include Jordan Derra, Dylan Chatt, Connor Feiling, Luke Wakehouse, Clay Beaumont, Cole Freidel, Brock Rogers, and Garrison Potadle.
I think the Tigers have to be really excited and encouraged about next year.
Tekamah-Herman returns quite a few kids, and should improve quite a bit next season you would think.
This team took its lumps and had its growing pains this year, but I think one thing you can say about the Tigers is they kept fighting and never gave up.
Tekamah-Herman had the best season its had in the last three years.
The Tigers have to use this year's wins as building blocks for next year.
Tekamah-Herman has to think about the good moments when working out and playing the game this offseason.
The more ball the Tigers play over the offseason the better they will be next year.
Tekamah-Herman has to take part in as many team camps, open gyms, summer leagues, and weightlifting sessions as possible.
The Tigers have to be excited about and look forward to next year and what it could bring.
For the seniors they have to take what they learned playing high school basketball and apply it to their lives in the future.
I'm sure many valuable life lessons were taught over the course of their four years playing basketball for Tekamah-Herman.
For the returning players and newcomers they just have to realize that the sky is the limit and they can do anything they put their minds to.
