The Huskies advanced to the semifinals where they lost by only three points to the top-ranked and eventual champion Grant Plainsman team. The Hus- kies earned a final season state ranking of third in the Lincoln Journal-Star and fourth in the Omaha World- Herald. The Huskies started the season fast, winning their first four games, before losing to David City Aquinas. Shelby won the next three before taking third place in the con- ference tournament. Again, SHS won four in a row, be- fore taking on David City for the Central Eight Confer- ence title. The Huskeis lost a heartbreaker, 71-69, to end up second. The Huskeis went into district play as top seed. They squeaked by Humphrey St. Francis in overtime before blowing away Osceola and Humphrey to advance to the state tourney. In the first round at state they defeated the Dorchester Longhorns by 14 before falling to Grant in the semifin- als. Highlights of the season were a double overtime win over Stromsburg, second place in the Central Eight, win- ning sub-district and districts, and advancing to semifin- als at state. Named to the Central Eight Cofnerence first team were Mike O'Brien and Mike Davis. Receiving honorable mention was Darin Moon. All three were invited to play in the conference all-star game. Managers for the team were Darrin Hopwood, Jay Voss, Steve Fusco and Mike Lockman. 28

Coach O'Brien The 1984-85 girls basketball season was a memorable one as Coach Keith Jurrens reached the century makr in vic- tories. The girls started out a little slow los- ing their first two games to Rising City and Stromsburg. They got on the win- ning track when they defeated Nebraska Lutheran 55-28. Shelby looked like they could get things going, but lost a close game to Henderson 45-43. The girls never let down and came back to beat Osceola 43-34 in an exciting game. They then ran into a buzz saw and dropped the next four games to Silver Creek, Fullerton, East Butler and Palmer — four very tough teams. The next three games were all victories as the girls defeated Genoa, Hastings St. Cecelia and David City for the 98th, 99th, and 100th victories of Jurrens' career. Shelby lost its last regular season game to East Butler but played some im- pressive ball against Humphrey St. Fran- cis in a come-from behind victo- ry in the opening round of the district tournament. In the dis- trict finals the Lady Huskies faced Osceola, a team they had beaten earlier in the year, and lost 52-42.
