The RV boys team took home a 54-51 Big Seven League road win over the Thunder while the Lady Panthers fell 52-49 in their league game against Nemaha Central. Earlier this season, the RV boys beat the Thunder 58-49 and the Lady Panthers fell 65-55 to Nemaha Central. Both teams have been assigned to the same sub-state tournament at Sabetha planned for March 1-6. The RV boys are now 10-2 in the Big Seven (first place) and are 13-3 overall. The Nemaha Central boys are in second place in the league with a 9-2 league record. The Panthers came from behind in the fourth quarter to secure the win over Nemaha Central. The Thunder took a 15-13 lead after the first quarter, then ex- tended that lead to 24-21 at the half. Both teams scored 14 points in the third quarter before the Panthers ramped up their efforts and won the game with a 19-13 fourth quarter. “We were down most of the game, but we were able to make some huge plays in the fourth quarter to take the lead,” RV Head Coach Chris Brown said. “Mason (Thomas) and Brady (Klotz) both hit huge three-pointers in the fourth quar- ter.” RV junior Nahcs Wahwassuck scored an impressive 29 points during the game, followed by Klotz with 13. Nemaha Central junior Zac Kramer carried his team with 18 points.
