“Think about growing up with your parents and you got to do whatever the hell you wanted to do instead of them telling you things. Would you be sitting here? I know I wouldn’t." What you want isn’t always what is right for you. Let the right people keep you accountable.

In the years since, he would reach out after big games and congratulate me and our team on our success. Always a huge compliment hearing from him! A class act, and a deserving award!

I got to work with Coach Fiegel in the summers when I first got into coaching. As soon as I got around him he would always light up with basketball and wanted to help young coaches more than I thought anyone would! Nothing was sacred, he was an open book!

Preferred Walk-On to National Attention: Kansas State senior lineman Sam Hecht, a 6’4” product of Mill Valley High School, has been selected as a semifinalist for the prestigious William V. Campbell Trophy, awarded annually to the nation’s top athlete with the combination of academics, leadership, and on-field performance. At Mill Valley, Hecht capped his HS career with back-to-back state championships in 2019 and 2020, before taking his talents to Manhattan as a preferred walk on. In 2024, he started all 13 games at center and earned All-Big 12 Second Team honors. He logged a team-high 840 offensive snaps, drawing only two penalties all season, while anchoring an offensive line that powered one of the most efficient offenses in school history. Congratulations to the Mill Valley alum! 👏 #sportsinkansas  Photo: Mill Valley Football

It's always great when the Roundhouse is packed at Wichita!

@LVPioneerBBall 2.. many

Over/Under on reviews in final 2 minutes? #FinalFour #NCAABasketball #NCAAFinalFour

@CoachPickens1 @MarchMadnessMBB Basically D2 is a play in game for the tournament. The NWMS teams of the past would absolutely be a menace. I honestly think most of the Power schools would hate the idea. Many of the top D2 are as good or better than many of the bottom half of D1.

@CoachBangle @MarchMadnessMBB Ingenious...

Something I think would be awesome to try with @MarchMadnessMBB would be to have the D2 championship before the Big Dance. Then the winner of D2 get a bid into the tournament. I would love to see some of these #16 seeds vs the top D2 teams.

Congrats to our guys on their All-SFL selections. A very talented league and well deserved honors.

So proud of our guys reaching another goal in their season. Getting back to Wichita for the State Tournament. 3 of 5 years in the big dance is a strong testament to our community, students, admin and teachers. I am blessed with this group. Back to work in a loaded bracket!

Biggest day of the year for bball and @KSHSAA website can't handle it?
