I believe it's the first time since 2014 that no private schools will win a Girls Basketball State Title. Omaha Benson, Northwest, Pierce, Crofton, Friend, and Wynot were your winners that year

Seth Trimble is everything college basketball is supposed to be. Came in as a freshman and didn't play. More minutes as a sophomore. Starter as a junior. Star and leader as a senior. He deserves this moment. He etched his name into history. They'll be talking about this for generations.

@ScottSteinbrook @Austin2Jacobsen @SuitUpVarsity Fun fact. The floor at the Viaero Center is the old Chicago Bulls practice court. It’s a little rough last time I saw it pieced together for a Globetrotters event there but still…

@Austin2Jacobsen @SuitUpVarsity SportsPlex has 8 courts, so the seating capacity is designed for events using all those courts. It wouldn’t work for a single court type of game. I believe the hockey arena still has a courts, but they don’t do much other than hockey any more. KHS and UNK is where it’s at.

@tony_chapman76 Ever since I coached my older 2 daughters I was a proponent of play in as many tourneys as your grade and then be done before high school basketball is done. Nowadays 4th grade teams are playing 10 tournaments or 30 games and it’s a train wreck. Kids are “specializing” now too.

Coached a lot of youth girls hoops this month. Really watching the concerning trends of participation in our state.
Have a lot of thoughts on “the model” and why girls are quitting.
- No need for second or third grade basketball GAMES. Skill development? Yes. 3-on-3 leagues? Awesome.
- In youth volleyball, guess who refs the games? The other players and coaches. Police themselves. In basketball, girls get knocked over for 5-6 years and decide it’s not worth it in high school. I get it.
- More players would play if we played FEWER GAMES that were better officiated. Just a hunch. “Hey mom, that was fun, I didn’t spend the whole game on the ground.”
- I KNOW we have an officials shortage. But we have to SHUT UP at games at the JV and high school varsity level. Only makes it worse. On the other side….
- JV officials if you are getting paid, call the first HAND CHECK. Just don’t allow it. Then girls won’t get knocked over for 32 minutes and you’ll get a breather while they shoot free throws. I have seen way too many gruesome injures at the JV level the last few years.
- Coaches!! I get the game has turned physical because of the whistle. But we can teach our kids to play without fouling!! I watched Bennington and Norris (on my TV, sadly) on Friday. Same for Elkhorn Valley and Central City. You can play GREAT defense without fouling. Promise.
Ok. That’s enough. If you are playing in a conference tournament this week go have fun. Cut a dang net down. I hope I can watch your team soon.

Seven schools are headed to Kearney for the NCAA D2 Central Regional Volleyball Tournament hosted by @UNKvolleyball.
I sat down with @KACCNebraska President @Rush97 on the economic impact of all these teams and crowds of people coming to Kearney this weekend.
