After last year's state runner-up finish there seems a pathway, as they say, for senior Emre Gedik (3) and his team to finish the job in Class A.

ON3 - Jase Reynolds, EN 2, Chris Garner Jr. N 10

Both Elkhorn North's Jase Reynolds (2) and Norris's Chris Garner Jr. (10) figure to be playing in the state basketball tournament. Pretty sure you know what I mean by that.

Sawyer Smith (33) got his 23, his Ogallala team ended mighty Ashland-Greenwood's 31-game winning streak, and now we await a C-1 state final rematch. It can't be that simple, can it?

If defending state champ  Ashland-Greenwood is gonna beat Ogallala in Saturday's battle of unbeatens at the Heartland Hoops Classic, they'd better have a plan for guys like Sawyer Smith (33) and Rylan Gilmore (5). My guess is they do, but still.

It's a scramble for a rebound in last weekend's game at Elkhorn South, where visiting Lincoln Southwest claimed an 86-63 victory. That's Elkhorn South's Brady Klein (11) getting to the ball a step ahead of Southwest's Dakari Wilson (30) and LeVonte Crockett (5).
