The Howells-Dodge Boys Basketball Team doubled up Tekamah-Herman 78-39 at home last Friday night before winning 60-39 at Pender on Saturday, and 56-49 at home over Battle Creek Tuesday night.

The Jaguars led the Tigers 19-9 after the 1st quarter and 41-17 at halftime.

Howells-Dodge outscored the Tigers 16-9 in the 3rd quarter to extend their lead to 57-26 at the end of three.

The Jaguars outscored Tekamah-Herman 21-13 in the 4th quarter.

Howells-Dodge got out to an 18-12 lead on the Braves at the end of one, and outscored Battle Creek 17-8 in the 2nd quarter to take a 35-20 lead into the locker room.

The Braves won the 3rd quarter 15-11 to make it a 46-35 game at the end of three.

Battle Creek won the 4th quarter 14-10.

Continued great play from the Jaguars!

Howells-Dodge (14-3) takes on West Point-Beemer (7-11) in the East Husker Conference Tournament Quarterfinals at home Tuesday night in action that will be aired on 107.9 the Bull.

The Cadets won 47-37 over Oakland-Craig in the first round of the Tournament in Madison on Saturday.

Howells-Dodge beat West Point-Beemer 47-27 in West Point on December 13th.

That game kind of turned the tide on the Jaguars’ season I feel.

It was the 2nd win of the Jaguars’ current 12-game winning streak.

It helped establish a new level of dominance for Howells-Dodge on the season too I feel.

The Jaguars won it big and haven’t looked back since quite honestly.

I think Howells-Dodge is going to win big again on Tuesday night.

I feel the Finals are going to come down to the Jaguars and Bancroft-Rosalie.

You can’t count out Wisner-Pilger or Clarkson/Leigh though as both of those teams are playing really well right now too.

Tuesday night’s game is scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m.
