Hoops force: Behind Reid, Deshler still rolling
Published on Thursday, 19 February 2026 at 4:00 pm

HANCEVILLE — Garrett Reid, already known for near-impeccable credentials on the football field and the baseball diamond, is now making his presence felt on the hardwood, keeping Deshler’s momentum alive this season.
Reid’s multi-sport excellence has become the storyline for the Tigers, whose basketball surge is following the same upward arc that has defined the school’s athletic program. With the senior guard directing traffic and setting the tone, Deshler continues to roll through its schedule, showing that the winning culture built around Reid transcends any single sport.
While the stat sheet from Tuesday night’s outing was not released, those in the gym saw the same competitive edge that has marked Reid’s career: quick decisions, steady leadership, and a knack for rising in crucial moments. His influence is translating into wins and reinforcing the notion that Deshler’s current run is no fluke.
As region play intensifies, opponents are quickly learning that slowing the Tigers means containing Reid, a task easier said than done. For now, Deshler looks poised to keep its season on track, riding the momentum of their star’s growing basketball résumé.
