It was tough sledding for the Tekamah-Herman Football team again Friday night as the Tigers lost 56-14 at Doniphan-Trumbull.
The Cardinals led 21-0 at the end of one and blanked Tekamah-Herman 28-0 in the second quarter to take a 49-0 lead into the locker room.
The Tigers won the third quarter 8-7, and the score after three was 56-8 in favor of Doniphan-Trumbull.
Tekamah-Herman blanked the Cardinals 6-0 in the 4th quarter.
Very tough first half for the Tigers, but I think the progress and heart Tekamah-Herman played with and showed in the second half has to be something encouraging and something they can build off of.
The Tigers (1-3) host Logan View (3-1) Friday night.
The Raiders won 43-14 at home against Stanton this past Friday night.
Logan View is on a roll right now and is playing very good football at the moment.
If Tekamah-Herman can play the way they did the whole second half for the entire game against the Raiders though then this could be an interesting contest.
The Tigers just can't have a first half like they did against Doniphan-Trumbull.
Tekamah-Herman has to play with confidence and a belief that they can spring the upset over Logan View.
The Tigers have to hope that the Raiders are in over their head, overconfident, and cocky in this one to have a real chance, in my opinion.
Knowing how well coached and disciplined Logan View is though that is not likely to happen.
Tekamah-Herman has to show up and put up a good fight though. The Tigers have to come out ready to work, play hard, and hit.
Tekamah-Herman has to play with a lot of heart and pride, and do everything they can to keep things close and pick up the win.
You only get four years of high school football, and the Tigers have to play with school pride Friday night.
Tekamah-Herman has to play like their season is on the line because it is in terms of making the playoffs.
The Tigers have to be proud to dawn the Purple and Vegas Gold, and be proud to wear a Tekamah-Herman uniform and play for Tekamah-Herman.
The Tigers are playing for more than just themselves....they're playing for their teammates, family, friends, the coaches, the school, and the two communities involved.
So Tekamah-Herman has to play with a sense of pride and purpose Friday night if they are to be successful, in my opinion.
