The Winnebago Boys Basketball Team saw their season come to an end Tuesday night as the Indians fell 59-51 to Logan View/Scribner-Snyder in the C1-6 Sub-District Semifinals from Oakland-Craig.
The Raiders held a 13-10 lead on the Indians at the end of one. Logan View/Scribner-Snyder outscored Winnebago 22-10 in the 2nd quarter to take a 35-20 lead into the locker room.
The Indians outscored LVSS 20-7 in the 3rd quarter to make it a 42-40 game at the end of three.
The Raiders won the 4th quarter 17-11.
Winnebago gave Logan View/Scribner-Snyder all they could handle and want and then some, but simply came up a little short.
The Indians end the season at 9-13.
Not the type and kind of season Winnebago was hoping for I am sure.
I'm sure the Indians expected a lot more out of themselves this year.
Things just never came together for Winnebago like they were hoping and expecting.
The Indians say goodbye to Drew Parker, Jeriah Greyowl, Ed Payer, Lourde Kearnes, and Willy Wingett.
Some good players and talent lost to graduation for sure.
Key returners for next year include Kellen Crossbear, Javon Price, and Darius Bass.
I think Winnebago can be good next year, but they will be young.
The Indians had some seniors on the team this year and thought they could get back to their old ways, but it didn't happen this year for whatever reason.
The good news is there is always next year for Winnebago.
The Indians have to really get after things in the offseason and challenge themselves.
Winnebago has to come out and work hard and play a lot of ball between now and mid-November.
The more ball the boys play and the more they workout and lift weights between now and the start of next season the better they will be.
It's tough when you think you're going to have a great season and then things don't turn out the way you hoped they would.
That simply means you have to work even harder than you did the year before and do whatever it takes to get back.
I look for the Indians to do that this offseason, and comeback stronger and better next year.
It's not going to be easy for Winnebago to get back to form next season, but it can definitely happen.
The Indians have to crank up the intensity on the court and in the weightroom this summer, and really put in the work.
