Despite a sluggish start to the 2023-24 boy's basketball season, the Greencastle Tiger Cubs find themselves in a good position midway through December. 
Bryce Rector's team is sitting at 3-3, having won two straight and Rector picked up career win number 100, all of them at Greencastle, last week when the Tiger Cubs turned back Southmont, 64-48. That was on the heels of a 49-35 win over South Putnam. 

"I was really pleased with the way that we played this past weekend. I thought our group made some real strides this past week and came away with two wins against sectional opponents. Obviously, winning our 100th game since I have been here at Greencastle was an added bonus to the weekend. It's an achievement that is really a testament to the players and coaches we have had throughout the past eight seasons. We have been very blessed with some great players that have helped us win a lot of games, and I think we have one of the best coaching staffs in the state. You don't reach these types of milestones without great players and a supportive staff," Rector told The Putnam County Post. 

After opening the season 1-3, Greencastle has found its footing as of late, something that Rector is pleased by. 

"The season is off to a pretty good start so far. I thought we started a bit slow with losses early on in three of our four games, but I have seen a lot of growth one month into the season and like where we are headed. I look for our team to continue growing as the season progresses as we are still quite a young team with only one senior and several sophomores logging significant minutes," Rector said.
