Beavers Near Title Bid With Balanced Scoring Duo
Beavers rely on sophomores for punch as O'Neil cites Joey Meyer at 8.3 points and 4.6 rebounds and Drew Kite at 7.5 points and 6.4 boards. Tyler Hess, Braeden Robinson and Mason Turner add depth as the team averages 70.3 points. Riverton, their mid tempo first round opponent, features three guards and a 6-foot-2 tallest player, with patient offense and mixed zone defense. The coach plans to press and trap with full and half court pressure to fuel a deep playoff run.

Jackrabbits eye state title after perfect run since loss
Greeley County aims to stay hot at state in Class B after a six point setback to 2A Syracuse on Dec 14 when coach Starkey was absent for the birth of his child. Since then, Jackrabbits have 15 straight wins over 1A foes, beating Stanter County Wichita County and St Francis. Starkey favored Healy in the sub state final at Dighton, noting Healy’s defense and John Miller’s takeover as the team wore down the Coyotes. The last state title for the Jackrabbits came in 1968 in Emporia.
