The Winnebago Boys fell 57-52 to Logan View/Scribner-Snyder in the C1-7 Sub-District Semifinals aired on 107.9 the Bull last Tuesday night.
LVSS led pretty much the entire way, and even pulled ahead by 15 points in the second half. Winnebago got hot from three point range in the fourth quarter and were able to close the gap, but the Raiders were able to prevail with the win.
Anthony Earth hit 7 three pointers and scored 33 points for the Indians.
Winnebago ends the year at 14-9.
The Indians played their best basketball in the second half of the season, getting on a roll late in the season.
That unfortunately did not translate into postseason success.
Winnebago says goodbye to Asaias Bernie, Caleb Kearnes, and Jarius Bass.
This team was relatively young though, and returns the likes of Kellen Crossbear, Earth, Javon Price, and Dyami Berridge.
I feel like the Indians have some nice up and coming talent, will be a force to be reckoned with once again next year.
I feel like Logan View/Scribner-Snyder's Senior Leadership was the difference in that game for the Raiders.
Winnebago will learn from it, and come back bigger, better, and stronger next year. I have no doubt about that.
The Winnebago Girls upset Malcolm 51-49 in the C1-1 Sub-State Final at Malcolm Friday night.
Keisha Snyder had 21 points and 15 rebounds for the Indians, good enough for a double-double. Maddy Cleveland added 15.
Head Coach Treivan Bear says his team came through in the clutch. "Made big threes at crucial moments, our guards did a great job at boxing out- which got their big in foul trouble, overall all of the girls stepped up and made a huge impact during the game. "
The Indians punch their ticket to Lincoln for the first time since 1990.
Winnebago (15-10) takes on GICC (21-2) in the first round of State at 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday at Pinnacle Bank Arena.
The Crusaders beat Louisville 38-30 in the C1-2 District Final at Crete Friday night.
I feel like the Indians have a chance to pull off the upset or at the very least keep this one close.
Winnebago has certainly made a very nice postseason run to the State Tournament.
The Indians hope they can keep it going this week too.
I think Winnebago can definitely do that.
Coach Bear says his team looks to create some havoc down in Lincoln. "Girls are very confident. Entering as the 8th seed, we don’t have anything to lose and everything to gain. At State anything can happen, I believe that they have what it takes to win it all."
I completely agree with Coach Bear.
The Indians know they can beat anyone they take the floor against.
I think Winnebago has already proven that this postseason.
I think the Indians will be fearless and unafraid of anyone, and could even put fear in their opponents.
Winnebago is a dangerous team coming into the State Tournament.
Coach Bear says making State is a big deal. "It’s big, it’s a huge deal here in our community. Especially, with everything going on in the world and how Covid has impacted our day to day life. We are happy that we were able to have the season that we did."
It will be interesting to see what happens.
