North Bend Central rolled last week and the first part of this week. The Tigers have been on a terror as of late.
North Bend Central (17-3) takes on Madison (2-16) in the East Husker Conference Tournament on Thursday.
The Dragons lost 2-0 to Battle Creek and 2-1 to O'Neill at the Madison Triangular on Tuesday.
Madison has struggled this year, but the Tigers still have to come ready to play.
No one can be taken lightly, and the Dragons are no exception.
North Bend Central can't get too ahead of themselves in this tournament. Certainly the Tigers have a chance to be very successful, but North Bend Central has to take things one match at a time.
With that said, as long as the Tigers don't get too ahead of themselves they should have pretty good success in this tournament.
I think North Bend Central could very well meet Stanton in the finals, and what a showdown that would be.
First things first though, the Tigers have to take care of the Dragons, a second round match up with either West Point-Beemer or Lyons-Decatur Northeast, and another match perhaps with Wisner-Pilger.
There's a lot of volleyball to be played in this tournament, and North Bend Central has to remain on top of their game.
