FREMONT - Class C1 #1 North Bend Central has accomplished all a school could hope for over the last three years - except for a conference title.

The three-time Class C1 defending state champs added an East Husker crown to their resumé on Saturday, dominating  Class C2 #6 Oakland-Craig 55-29.

The Tigers opened the game on a 10-0 run and never looked back, holding the Knights to just 26.3% shooting. Oakland-Craig was held under 30 points in a game for the first time since a 50-19 loss to West Point-Beemer in 2021.

The win is the 20th straight for North Bend Central. It's their 19th East Husker Conference tournament championships overall, and their first since 2017.
