Class A  First Round: No. 1 Omaha Westside (23-4) over No. 8 Lincoln High (16-8), No. 4 Lincoln Southwest (21-4) over No. 5 Millard North (19-6), No.

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.

My guess is, they’d almost all pay their 17 dollars again, even for just that one game. It was that kind of great day of basketball at the 2026

ON3 - Sawyer Smith 33 Drives, Landon Mohs 4

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?

Lots of other options have cropped over the past two decades, all of them outstanding in their own way, but there’s only one Heartland Hoops Classic,

ON3 - Sawyer Smith 33, Rylan Gilmore, Ogallala 5

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).
