Kylee Scheer from Cheney was chosen as the Hog Wild Performance of the Month for February. Scheer scored 31 points twice in a ten day span; the first against Wichita Trinity on the 11th and the second against Belle Plaine on the 21st.

“I am honored to be given this award,” Scheer said. “I am thankful for my teammates and my coach for everything they have done.”

Scoring is something that has always come naturally for Scheer, who is averaging 23.5 points per game for Cheney, which is one of the top schools in Class 3A.

“I’m mainly a three-point shooter,” said Scheer, who is a 34 percent shooter from the three-point line. “Teammates do a great job of getting me shots.”

Even though Cheney lost some key players from last season, the Cardinals still have a lofty record, which Scheer expected.

“Some players have filled in and stepped up to the plate,” Scheer said.

Leading the Cardinals back to the state tournament is the one thing Scheer wants more than anything else this season. Cheney lost in the 3A title game to Royal Valley last season.

“The state tournament did not end the way we wanted it to last season,” Scheer said. “So we want it to be better this season.”
