West Point-Beemer Girls drop first round State Game to North Bend Central














The West Point-Beemer Girls Basketball Team lost 48-33 to North Bend Central in the first round of State at the Devaney Center on Thursday in action aired on 107.9 the Bull.

The Tigers got up 13-6 at the end of one, and won the 2nd quarter 7-5 to take a 20-11 lead into the locker room.

NBC outscored the Cadets 19-9 in the 3rd quarter, and led 39-20 at the end of three.

West Point-Beemer won the 4th quarter 13-9.

Sidney Swanson had 14 points while Rachel Groth and Reece Snodgrass added 8 apiece.

Tough go of things for the Cadets against the eventual C-1 State Champs.

West Point-Beemer's season ends at 23-6.

I think the Cadets probably had more talent last year and were glad to be at State, but this year wanted to win at State.

Unfortunately, things just didn't workout for West Point-Beemer this year, but the Cadets should be even better next year.

West Point-Beemer loses Abbey Dale and Katie Combs to graduation.

Both were injured this year and I think Combs might of missed part of the season and Dale the whole year.

They were a big reason why the Cadets got to where they got this year though.

Swanson led the team with 583 points on the season and 180 rebounds on the year.

She is a great player, and I look for her to have a monster senior campaign next season.

Key returners include Brooklyn Weddle, Groth, Snodgrass, Hannah Landholm, Mollie Nielsen, Swanson, Emily Toelle, Jadyn Meiergerd, Katie Rainforth, and Katie Groth.

I look for West Point-Beemer to breakthrough next year and perhaps take that next step and win a game at State.

The Cadets have to put in a lot of shots and work this offseason, and crank up their workouts and work even harder than before.

West Point-Beemer has to put an extreme amount of effort into their workouts for next year.

The Cadets have to comeback better than ever and with the motto "unfinished business."

I think the loss at State probably kind of left a sour taste in West Point-Beemer's mouths.

The Cadets have to comeback next year with a senior laden team and make another State run.

All the pieces figure to be in place for West Point-Beemer to get back to Lincoln and do something next year too.
