This is a must win for West Point-Beemer.
The Cadets must refuse to lose in this one as they need it for East Husker Conference Tournament Purposes and seeding and momentum.
West Point-Beemer has to start the way they did against Tekamah-Herman and finish the way they did against Schuyler.
The Cadets have to come out and be aggressive, and play ball like they mean it from the get go.
Twin River has been struggling as of late so this is as good a time as any for West Point-Beemer to get them.
It can definitely happen too the Cadets just have to put 4 quarters of great basketball together.

This game figures to be a good measuring stick for West Point-Beemer should they matchup with the Patriots in the East Husker Conference Tournament.
That could very well happen too, but there is still business to attend to first before worrying about that.
Pierce comes to town on Tuesday so that will be a big one, and then there's a game at Wayne next Thursday.
The Cadets could very well win these next three games and be 15-3 riding a 10-game winning streak heading into the East Husker Conference Tournament.
That would be quite the deal, but it's one game at a time if you are West Point-Beemer.
