Northern Valley Huskies vs Tri-Plains/Brewster Titans - December 6, 2024 (Game 1)
Coach Cole,
Quarter 1 - The Huskies came out firing Friday night as they opened the first quarter, scoring 28 points to the Titans 2. NV showed a 2-2-1 press defense that the Titans could not handle, and when the Huskies stole the ball, every player ran the floor in their respective lanes. The Huskies had so much adrenaline running through their bodies that some players forgot to set up the press after making baskets, so I had to give them a vocal reminder every make. The Titans showed man to man defense, as the Huskies ran their new offense, “14”, with some success, but had some turnovers.
Quarter 2 - In the second quarter the Huskies took off the press and ran their half court 1-3-1 zone defense. They switched between regular, and trapping in the corners. The Titans switched from man to zone, and the Huskies ran their “Overload” offense. Gavin Thalheim would put in two 3-pointers in the zone. The first half score was 46 to 6.
Quarter 3 - In the third the Huskies continued to run their zone offense. On the defensive side, we tried sporting our 1-3-1 to man defense, but the Titans would score 6 points to combat the man to man. Owen Hammond would lead the Huskies to the 3rd quarter by scoring 10, as he hit two corner 3’s.
Quarter 4 - The start of the fourth quarter score was 64 to 12, as there would be a running clock. The Huskies would start slow but would pick up the pace in their zone offense as Gavin Thalheim would pour in two more 3’s and Tait Thalheim made one 3. The final score was 81 - 12.
Final Thoughts - Overall I was very surprised by the successful execution that the Huskies showed, I was not surprised by the level of effort. We had conditioned in practice a lot, and the intensity level was high. Those first couple weeks of practice became redundant after a while as I had the team practice two offenses and three defenses over and over and over again. We still had some rotation errors on defense and our shot selection could use some work. I tell the team to shoot when they are open, and they did, so I cannot be mad about that. I would like to give Gavin Thalheim and Owen Hammond Co-Players of the Game as they combined for 50 points, 34 rebounds, 14 steals, and 5 blocks. They both played 31 minutes of the total 32 minutes. Tait Thalheim came in with a close second with 23 points in his first high school game.

The Northern Valley Lady Huskies finished out their 2024 season in Greensburg on October 22nd competing in the Class 1A DII Regional 3 Tournament. The Huskies started the night off playing Cunningham the #5 seed. The Huskies lost the first set 17-25 but came back out strong winning set two, 25-23. The final deciding set was hard fought by both teams but the Huskies fell just short losing 23-25. The Huskies faced Bucklin, the #4 seed, next losing in a two-set match taking away their chance of moving on to substate. The Huskies faced Natoma for their last game of the season determined to finish their season with a win. They were successful winning 25-21, 25-14
The Huskies finished out their season with a record of 8-26. Coach Hansen’s final comments on the season, “I am so proud of the work these girls have put in this season. We knew coming in this year that we would face some challenges and that we would have to be adaptable. This group came to practice every day ready to put the work in. Of course, we would have loved to continue our season or see more success, but they left it all out there every time they stepped on the court. We wish our 5 seniors the best, they will be missed.”
