The North Bend Central Boys used a big 4th quarter to beat West Point-Beemer 63-31 at home last Thursday night in action aired on 107.9 the Bull before doubling up Stanton 80-40 at home Tuesday night.
Defense was the name of the game against the Cadets through the first 3 quarters as nobody could buy a bucket.
The Tigers led 8-5 at the end of the 1st quarter and 18-10 at halftime.
North Bend Central won the 3rd quarter 15-11 to extend their lead to 33-21 at the end of three.

Stanton won the 4th quarter 10-8.
Great 4th quarter performance against West Point-Beemer and a great all around performance against Stanton.
North Bend Central (4-0) takes on Omaha Roncalli (2-1) on the road Friday night.
The Crimson Pride lost 63-55 at home to Omaha Concordia on Saturday.
The Tigers are just as good if not better than Omaha Concordia so Roncalli has their work cut out for them.
The Crimson Pride struggled in their first game against West Point-Beemer, but routed Boys Town.
It's just hard knowing and saying what team North Bend Central will get Friday night.
The Tigers could very well get the Roncalli team that blew out the Cowboys or they could get the Crimson Pride squad that lost to Omaha Concordia.
Either way North Bend Central has to be ready to play their game and rock and roll Friday night.
This is a huge game for the Tigers.
It's an opportunity for North Bend Central to make a statement against the defending Class B Runner-Up Crimson Pride.
We'll see if the Tigers can make that statement Friday night.

Two great performances from North Bend Central.
The Tigers (4-0) host Milford (2-2) Tuesday night.
The Eagles fell 45-42 at home to Ashland-Greenwood this past Tuesday night.
This is one that should be competitive, but result in a North Bend Central win.
The Tigers have picked up right where they left off in last year's State Championship season, and have been super impressive so far this year.
I don't look for that to change Tuesday night.
As a matter of fact, I fully expect North Bend Central to play well and win by a good margin.
The Tigers are so long and athletic, and are a matchup nightmare for most teams.
North Bend Central has a legit shot to repeat as State Champions at the rate they're going.
The Tigers are a very good and tough minded team, and that has and will continue to serve them well, in my opinion.
I look for North Bend Central to finish off their pre-Christmas Holiday Slate strong, and be 5-0 heading into their Holiday Tournament.
