HUMBOLDT — Nathan Whitcomb has become comfortable in his role as “a distributor” of the basketball for Humboldt High’s Cubs this season.
So when Eureka High’s Tornadoes “challenged” Whitcomb to shoot the basketball in Tuesday night’s 2012 Kansas Class 3A Substate opener, he stepped up for his team.
“They challenged him to shoot it by limiting Tanner (McNutt) and Noah (Thornbrugh). Nathan has done a good job for us as a distributor of the ball this season,” said David Taylor, Humboldt head coach, after the Cubs win 47-24 at home.
