Kyler Hellbusch led the way with 28 points while Braxton Chvatal added 9. Sam Post notched 7.
End of Season Synopsis:
North Bend Central ends their year at 17-7. I thought it was a pretty special year for the Tigers. North Bend Central won the East Husker Conference Tournament. That is pretty darn cool. The Tigers say goodbye to Post, Hellbusch, and Jake Wright. Key returners include Chvatal, Koda Baehr, Ethan Kluck, Cash Hanis, and Layne Ruzicka. North Bend Central has some solid, key pieces coming back next year and should be a force to be reckoned with once again next season.
