The West Point-Beemer Volleyball Team lost 3-0 at North Bend Central Thursday night, and 2-0 to Arlington at the Arlington Triangular Tuesday night, before downing Wayne 2-1 at the Triangular.
The Tigers won set one 25-14, set two 25-11, and set three 25-21.
The Cadets won the first set over the Blue Devils, 25-17, and lost set two 25-23, before taking set three 25-21.
The Eagles downed West Point-Beemer 25-18 in the first set, and 25-21 in the second set.
I thought the Cadets did a really nice job bouncing back from the loss to North Bend Central by beating Wayne, but inconsistency reared its ugly head on West Point-Beemer in the Arlington match I would say.
The Cadets (8-6) host Norfolk Catholic (2-10) Thursday night.
The Knights lost 2-0 to Lutheran High Northeast and Crofton at their own Triangular Tuesday night.
West Point-Beemer ought to be able to pick up a win here, and sweep the match.
I feel this match is an opportunity for the Cadets to gain some confidence and momentum, and set the tone for the rest of the season.
West Point-Beemer has been very good at times this season, but has struggled at others.
Perhaps a 3-0 win over Norfolk Catholic will give the Cadets a boost, and allow them to become more consistent.
I feel West Point-Beemer has what it takes to make a run here at the end of the season, and perhaps this is the match that will springboard the Cadets to bigger and better things.
West Point-Beemer has some matches coming up that should be sure wins, and other matches that could be wins if the Cadets play up to their potential.
West Point-Beemer just has to focus on good play at all times, and work on being very efficient hitters, passers, blockers, servers, and serve receivers.
I feel the Cadets are just waiting to breakout and go on a terror before the end of the regular season.
West Point-Beemer still has time, but it's time for the Cadets to start making their run towards postseason stardom.
Fort Calhoun and Tekamah-Herman are arguably having better seasons than West Point-Beemer to this point, and are in the Cadets' Subdistrict.
So what I'm trying to say is it is time for West Point-Beemer to step up their game and play at an elite level if they hope to get by either team in the postseason.
The Cadets have to play with passion, pride, fire, toughness, pride, passion, tenacity, and grit Thursday night.
West Point-Beemer has to come out and play at the highest level possible, and be fired up and ready to take it to the Knights for however many sets the match lasts.
I think this is a match the Cadets will sweep, and that should only allow the players' confidence to grow.
It should be a good night of Volleyball all the way around for West Point-Beemer.
