The 2021-2022 season for the Tri-Valley Mustang boys basketball team will begin with a home game against Garretson on Friday, December 10th.  The Mustangs will look to improve on a 10-11 record from last season.

Head coach Brandon Feterl said, “We had some big wins and had a team that fought hard every night,” when talking about last year’s team.

“We have some older guys who I think are ready for a bigger role.  I’m excited to see what this team can do defensively if they’re able to stay focused every possession.  It will be fun to see them grow as a group,” said Feterl.

The first game will be broadcast on Big Sioux Media with a tip-off of approximately 8:00 p.m. after the girls game.
