Really tough way to end the season if you are West Point-Beemer knowing you were so close to making Sub-State. Tough pill to swallow if you are the Cadets. Still a great season nonetheless though.

West Point-Beemer ends the campaign at 22-10.

The Cadets picked up a lot of big wins this year, including victories over Wayne, North Bend Central three times, Wisner-Pilger, Humphrey/Lindsay Holy Family, Battle Creek, Fremont Bergan, DC West, BRLD, and Pender.

West Point-Beemer should be very proud of the season they had and all that they accomplished.

This was a great Cadet team, and they did a lot of nice things this season.

West Point-Beemer says goodbye to Snodgrass, Weddle, Swanson, and Groth.

Key returners include Meiergerd and Emily Toelle.

Some talent to work with next year, but some very good players being lost to graduation.

Hopefully next year will return to normal and the pandemic is gone by the start of next season.

This was a different season in many ways for everyone, and I think we're all ready for some sense of normalcy to return whenever that happens.
