DAKOTA CITY This was the first game of the Basketball season for the Bobcats. This was a home game for Dakota City. The boys from Dakota City played a good game and came out in front of Beemer by a score of 56 to 41. Beemer had the lack of experienced men on the floor and they did not play the best ball. SNYDER The Bobcats played the Snyder Basketball team at Bancroft because this was to be a home game for Beemer. The Snyder boys beat the Bobcats by a score of 54 to 33. The Bobcats team did not have a good night for playing basketball that night. CRAIG The Beemer Bobcats traveled to Craig on the 11th of December. The Bobcats played a good game and were out in front of the Craig boys all the way until the last quarter. The game ended with the score 28 for Beemer and 31 for Craig. The high scoring man for Beemer was Koenig with 9 points and the high scoring man for Craig was Bromm and Raver who also had 9 points each. ROSALIE On the 15th of December the Bobcats traveled to Rosalie to play another Basketball game. The game was a close game all the way, but the Rosalie boys held the lead during the entire game. The Rosalie boys went on to win over Beemer by a score of 45 to 40. The high scorer for Rosalie was Slaughter with 13 points and the high scorer for Beemer was Koenig with 15 points. WEST POINT The Beemer Bobcats traveled to West Point on the 16th of December to play the West Point team. The Bobcats had hopes for the game but were sadly disapointed. The game was a close game all the way to the finish with West Point leading at the half time with a score of 31 to 28. The game finished with a score of 58 to 52 in West Points favor. UEHLING The Beemer Boys traveled up to Lyons to play the Uehling boys in a game of Basketball. The Beemer boys were out to win their first game of the season. The game being played with much hopes set the Beemer Bobcats on fire. Beemer was ahead all the way during the game until the fourth quarter when Koenig fouled out on five fouls. After losing Koenig the Bobcats started to lose heavily. With the score all tied up at 43 with five seconds left to play one of the Uehling boys fouled and the free shots are what won the game for Beemer. The final score was Beemer 45 Uehling 43. The high point man for Beemer was Oswald with 17 points and the high point man for Uehling was Stover with 17 points. THURSTON The Beemer Bobcats traveled to Pender to play Thurston which was a home game for Beemer. The Beemer Boys did not have the pep they had the game before. They could not get some of their plays to work and they could not hit on their shots as the Thurston boys did. The game ended with the final score of 39 to 29 in favor of Thurston. The high point man for Beemer was Koenig with 10 points and the high point man for Thurston was Fletcher with 20 points. EMERSON (SACRED HEART) After Beemer had defeated Bancroft, they traveled to Emerson to play Sacred Heart. Beemer jumped to an early lead and led almost the entire game. The final score was Beemer 52 to Emerson’s 50. This was the second win in a row for the Beemer Bobcat's. Oswald was high point man with 18 and Koenig had 17 points. Beemer will play one more scheduled game before the District Tournament. The annual must be sent in for publication, so there will be no write up on the tournament. Beemer drew the top seeded team to play in the District, which is Belden. Good luck to the boys. 29
