The Tekamah-Herman Tigers went 1-2 at their own tournament on Saturday, downing BRLD 2-1 before losing 2-1 to Fort Calhoun and 2-0 to Omaha Roncalli.
Tekamah-Herman won set one over the Wolverines 25-15. BRLD took set two 25-23 before the Tigers claimed set three 25-21.
The Crimson Pride downed the Tigers 25-10 in the first set, and 25-17 in the second set.
The Pioneers won set one 25-14. Tekamah-Herman earned a 25-17 set two win before Fort Calhoun claimed set three 25-20.
The Tigers didn't play too bad on Saturday, in my opinion. Tekamah-Herman took care of the Wolverines, and gave Fort Calhoun all they could handle.
The Tigers (5-9) are at Madison (0-5) Tuesday night.
The Dragons lost 3-0 at home to David City last time out, and have really struggled this year.
Madison has only won one set all year so this is a match Tekamah-Herman should be able to win in three or four sets.
The Tigers can't overlook or underestimate the Dragons though.
Any team can be beaten on any given day so Tekamah-Herman has to be ready from the get go against Madison.
The Tigers must bring their "A" game, and be ready to take it to the Dragons.
Tekamah-Herman has to play well in all facets of the game...serving, passing, hitting, serve receiving, and attacking well.
The Tigers have to do the little things well and find ways to manufacture easy points.
At the same time, Tekamah-Herman has to make life difficult on Madison, and make the Dragons earn their points.
The Tigers have to do their best to get the ball to their best hitters.
Tekamah-Herman has to outhustle and outwork Madison as well.
The last thing the Tigers can afford to do is let the Dragons hang around. Tekamah-Herman can't give Madison and hope or life...the Tigers have to take that away early.
The Tigers have to enjoy themselves and have fun, but at the same time be serious and have a business like attitude.
Tekamah-Herman has to simply take care of business.
