The Winnebago Indians dropped their final game of the regular season Friday night, losing 67-26 at home to Scribner-Snyder.
The Trojans went up 20-0 at the end of one and doubled up Winnebago 28-14 in the second quarter to take a 48-14 lead into the locker room.
Scribner-Snyder won the third quarter 13-12 to go up 61-26 at the end of three.
The Trojans added 6 points in the fourth quarter to make up the final score.
The Indians gave up 525 yards of offense, including 495 on the ground.
It was definitely a tough way for Winnebago to end the season. The Indians finish the year 2-6.
There were some bright spots for Winnnebago this year though.
The comeback win over Cedar Bluffs to start the year is something these kids will remember for the rest of their lives, and the win over Omaha Nation is definitely something to take pride in.
The Indians had a better season this year than last so it has to be a good feeling knowing progress was made.
Winnebago says goodbye to seniors Kadge Thomas, Roman Perales, Vincent Bass, Kalief Harden, Antonio Redhorn, Nakia Mallory, Kyle Urbanec, and Airic Brown.
These eight seniors will definitely be missed, but the Indians have to believe they have a bright future given all the players that return next season.
Bass is a big loss on the line, but I'm sure Winnebago has returning players to fill the void.
The Indians have to get bigger, faster, stronger, and better before the start of next season.
Dedication in the weight room and on the field will be important for next year's team from now until August.
It's not what you do during the season that makes you good, it's all the countless hours put in the weight room and on the practice field during the offseason that truly make you who you are.
Winnebago had some success this year, but struggled a lot of the season as well. There's definitely a lot of room for growth and improvement on this team.
It will be interesting to see what kind of season the Indians have in 2016.
