Mustangs Hungry For First Win After Opener Against Jaguars

12/5/2020

Comments

 
Picture
Stanton has a deep bench and showed Friday that it isn’t afraid to keep fresh legs in the game. 

The Mustangs opened the season with a 71-29 loss on the road against Howells-Dodge. The Jaguars already had a game after falling to Class C1 Pierce 54-31 on Thursday.

Mustang coach Cole Beebe, who is in his first year at the helm, said the depth will bode well for Stanton this year. 

“We were deeper on the bench than we have been in previous years, so we had more experience going in,” Beebe said. “I liked how the kids were working so well together.”

Howells-Dodge jumped out to a 16-0 lead over Stanton before Owen Vogel dropped a 3-pointer to put the Mustangs on the board late in the first quarter. The Jaguars’ hot hand continued in the second half with a big 25-9 third quarter over Stanton.

Abe Larson and Parker Krusemark led the Mustangs with eight points each. Blake Sindelar put up a game-high 21 points for the Jaguars.

Bebe said the Jaguars were more hungry for the win after their opening loss, but that means the Mustangs will have the same hunger Saturday as they look to bounce back. 

“I, as are the kids, am relieved to get the first game out of the way,” Bebbe said. “Now we can get back into the season and play Tekamah. We’re in the same position Howells was — we’re hungry for a win.”

The Mustangs (0-1) will open at home on Saturday afternoon against Tekamah-Herman (1-0).

Just one game in and the Mustangs already are showing improvement on the court, according to Stanton coach Greg Wegner. 
​

After a tight first half, the Mustangs stumbled in the second half Thursday as they opened the girls basketball season on the road in Dodge. The Mustangs dropped a 64-32 decision to Howells-Dodge after hanging with the Jaguars 31-22 in the first half.
​

“I thought we came out and played well in the first half,” Wegner said after the game. “We did a lot of good things in that first half, and I am impressed with how they played. I see a lot of improvement from last year.”

Sylvia Cunningham hit double figures with 10 points to lead the Mustangs. Jaedyn Ratzlaff of Howells-Dodge dropped in 14 for the Jaguars.
 

“We posted up better than we have in the past and had some good looks down low,” Wegner said. “Overall, I saw improvement. We just need to be more consistent in the second half. We can’t let halftime come out and bite us in the tail.”

The Mustangs (0-1) will open at home on Saturday afternoon against Tekamah-Herman (1-0).

After leading Stanton to an 8-2 record and the Class D1 quarterfinals, Stanton coach David Stoddard has been recognized with the Mike Behrens Coaching Award.

Huskerland Prep announced Stoddard as the Class D1 recipient of the award.

The Mike Behrens Coaching Award was designated to recognize a coach’s ability to bring out the best in his team, creating a sense of overachievement. Coach Behrens was a coach at Omaha Roncalli in 2003 who despite having a roster of 20 in Class B reached the state finals with an undefeated record.

We had a successful season in so many ways. We had so much support from families and the community of Stanton," Stoddard said. "Coaching awards are nice, but I'm more concerned about the kids. I'm proud of them."
