Great play from the Pendragons in their last four matches!
Pender (8-8) takes on Neligh-Oakdale (5-9) and Tri County Northeast (2-8) at the Neligh-Oakdale Triangular Thursday night.
The Wolfpack lost 3-1 at Ponca Tuesday night while the Warriors beat Plainview 2-0 at the Plainview Triangular Tuesday night.
I think the Pendragons can win both matches, especially given the way they've been playing lately.
Tri County Northeast comes in with some momentum having taken a set from the Indians, and Neligh-Oakdale has played a tough schedule this year, but Pender is getting hot at the right time.
If the Pendragons play the way they did against Cedar Bluffs, Winside, and Humphrey/Lindsay Holy Family they should win both matches.
The road win at H/LHF was very impressive and sticks out to me.
The win goes to show that Pender is much improved, and has what it takes to win on the road against a good, quality team and program in the East Husker Conference.
Hopefully that along with the other wins the Pendragons have racked up lately leads to even more success down the line.
Pender has a big opportunity in front of them Thursday night.
The Pendragons could be a couple games above .500 at the start of October, which would be a very good thing and sign heading into the home stretch and what's all coming up for Pender before season's end.
