The Tekamah-Herman Volleyball team went 2-1 at the Raymond Central Invite on Saturday, downing the host Mustangs and York 2-0, but losing 2-0 to Arlington. The Tigers then turned around and swept Pender 3-0 at home Tuesday night.
Tekamah-Herman topped Raymond Central 25-21 in set one, and 25-11 in set two.
Arlington defeated the Tigers 25-15 in the first set, and 25-16 in the second set.
Tekamah-Herman downed the Dukes 25-20 in set one, and 25-18 in set two.

Marin Jetensky led Tekamah-Herman with 17 kills while Anna Wakehouse had 7.
Head Coach Becky Rennerfeldt's squad had 8 aces in the match. "We do have tough servers on our team. 8 aces is pretty good. And we typically have something around that each night. That is something that we work on, and we have some tough servers. So that's good too. Like I said, I'm just proud of our defense and maintaining our level of play throughout the night."
Tekamah-Herman (14-7) travels to North Bend Central (18-0) on Thursday."Obviously we're a pretty big underdog against North Bend. Them being undefeated and they just got the No. 1 seed for the Conference Tournament. But I'm hoping that our girls can just show up and compete, and we have nothing to lose, so I just hope we give them our all. And we just want to compete so that's what we're going there to do," Rennerfeldt said.
North Bend Central swept Malcolm 3-0 at home Thursday night.
Beating North Bend Central figures to be very tough, but this Tekamah-Herman team is having a really nice season.
Tekamah-Herman has been consistently good throughout the course of the season, and should be able to at least make a set or two close in the North Bend Central match.
Perhaps Tekamah-Herman can take a set too, but North Bend Central just doesn't drop many sets, and has yet to drop a match this season.
Tekamah-Herman has to head into that match expecting to do well and win though.
Giants can be slayed, and there's no reason why Tekamah-Herman can't be the first team to knock off North Bend Central this season.
Upsets happen in Volleyball all the time, and this Thursday's match could certainly be one.
North Bend Central could also cruise to an easy 3-0 win, but you would like to see Tekamah-Herman at least compete and challenge North Bend Central.
Tekamah-Herman has to go in there and play fearless and relentless.
Tekamah-Herman has to come out with a deep burning fire and passion that comes from within, and rise from the ashes and play well so to speak.
Tekamah-Herman is a good team, and has to play with confidence Thursday night.
Tekamah-Herman has to give North Bend Central their best shot, and play and fight their hardest.
North Bend Central undoubtedly is the better team on paper and has more talent I would say, but last time I checked games are not played on paper.
There's a reason games are played on the court, and so Tekamah-Herman has to simply play optimistic and believe that they can be the first team to knock off mighty North Bend Central this year.
Someone has to beat North Bend Central at some point this season or after this year, so Tekamah-Herman has to be telling themselves why not us on Thursday?
