1000 Yard Guy's 2012/2013 All-State Boys Basketball TeamsPosted Saturday, March 16, at 10:33 PM This may have been one of the toughest years I have had picking two of these classes. Class C-2, and D-2 were especially difficult. The main factor for me is not having all-state ballots that have been filled out by coaches. The four other outlets that publish high school all-state teams in Nebraska are the Omaha World-Herald, Lincoln Journal-Star, Huskerland Prep Report, and the Associated Press news service. All but the AP has ballots sent in by coaches...
I never see every home game any high school team plays. Not in football, not in any sport. But this winter I somehow convinced some folks at Northwest high school to give me the best seat in Rosencrants gym which enabled me to watch the Northwest Lady Vikings basketball team. ...
Well, no surprise here as we glace at Class A on the eve of the monumental game featuring Omaha Central and Oak Hill Academy. Many fans may be alarmed at Lincoln High making the list, but the Links have not been that bad in the past decade. As strong as Lincoln Northeast was in the 90's, the Rockets have just not enjoyed the success it achieved in those glory years. In fact, the past 3 season have only produced 18 wins...
When doing this Class, I had more than a sneaking suspicion that Beatrice might be the Kings, but never did I dream the winning percentage the Orangemen had compiled the past 10 seasons under splendid coach Jimmy Weeks. Lord in Heaven, their winning percentage was nearly 85 percent! How in the world do you accomplish this and in the process outdistance every other program by at least 16% in winning percentage...
So, in this era of "now", who in the world would even think 5 years back, let alone ten seasons ago? Young men that are seniors roaming the hardwoods of Nebraska high school basketball these days were a mere 7 years old "back in the day" and probably couldn't fathom an answer. They don't teach that kind of history in school, ya know. More important things that that, I agree. But it is imperative we give credit where credit is due and that is exactly what we will do here...
(Offensive/Defensive point averages included) Class A 1. Omaha South 19 - 1 45.5500 (69-51) 2. Omaha Central 16 - 4 45.4444 (72-51) 3. Papillion-LaVista 15 - 3 44.2000 (61-48) 4. Millard West 14 - 5 43.3158 (60-54) 5. Omaha Benson 12 - 5 42.7059 (64-56)...
Ryan Tegtmeier of Bruning-Davenport-Shickley has outscored entire basketball teams by himself. He scored 41 points in a game as a sophomore two years ago in an era when Nebraska high school boys basketball teams are specializing in defense. He has scored every single one of his teams points in a half. ...
Here is a brief peek at C-1 and how things are shaking out going into tonight's (Thursday) games. District 4's status should be filed under (crying shame) for the simple fact all five teams are ranked in the top 18 in the NSAA's most recent wild card standings. ...
Class B has always been one of my favorite classes for high school basketball. So, after delving into what has transpired thus far this season, I have decided to access the situation and attempt to clear the picture as far as what the path to the state tournament looks like for the 32 team field...
This will be the first in a series of blogs leading up the widely anticipated high school basketball match-up between Omaha Central and national power Oak Hill Academy from Mouth of Wilson, Va. This game may very well approach being the biggest hoops event in the history of Nebraska high school basketball for the simple fact one of the most elite hoops programs in the United States will be playing a Nebraska team IN Nebraska...
This is the 38th season for the Bobby Mills 1000 Yard Club. *A total of 94 backs surpassed the thousand yard plateau. *There were five 2000 yard rushers. *There were 65 seniors, 17 juniors, and a record 10 sophomores on this year's list. *Luke Glenn-Shelton, Alec Galvin-Burwell, James Kruger-Norris, Isaac Aakre-Millard North, Jac Bailey-McCool Junction, and Jacob Morrill of Creighton are 3 time 1000 yard runners. ...

Findley passes Giltner to D-2 title. Giltner quarterback Randy Findley competed a season of passing perfection and in the process led his Hornets to a 42-26 win over unbeaten Humphrey St. Francis in the Class D-2 State Championship at Memorial Stadium. ...
Class A State Football Championship: Monday, Nov. 19th-7:15 (Memorial Stadium/Lincoln) *Omaha North (10-2) vs. Millard North (12-0) Individual Statistics: Millard North Rushing: Isaac Aakre - 2,185-335 (27 Tds) Passing: Isaac Aakre - 401 (4 Tds)...
Class D-2 State Championship-Monday, 10:15 AM Memorial Stadium/Lincoln Giltner (12-0) vs. Humphrey St. Francis (12-0) Individual Statistics: Giltner Rushing.....Jake Findley-484-74 (14 Tds) Passing.....Jake Findley 219-312 - 3,502 (62 Tds) Receiving...Kyle Hawthorne-79-1,365 (24 Tds)...
It was a classic rematch between two of Class C-2's best, and it was the stifling defense, plus the running of junior quarterback Cole Wiseman that lifted the Sutton Mustangs to a 36-16 repeat win over Doniphan-Trumbull Tuesday evening in Sutton. Playing in front of a huge crowd and a classic playoff atmosphere, the Mustangs found a way to put the clamps on 2000 yard rusher Jordan Slough and rode a dominating 2nd half to earn a trip to Memorial Stadium to play for it all...
..............(Compiled by Bobby Mills Jr)............. It's been a while since this list has been published and I've had more than one inquiry in my travels this year about how many 2000 rushers there have been since I've started tracking these things. There are currently 95 verified backs that have rushed for 2000 yards in a single season with 5 others still active this season...
2nd Quarter momentum swing turns close game into 52-13 Norris win. For more than a quarter and a half it looked like two heavyweight fighters exchanging punches, but in a matter of 4:35 seconds and a couple of timely, costly 15 yard Aurora penalties, Norris scored twice and never looked back. ...
Slough, Doniphan-Trumbull defense shine in 35-6 win over North Platte St. Pats. Last Wednesday Doniphan-Trumbull faced C-2's number three defense and gouged Crofton for 49 points. Tuesday night it was North Platte St. Pats number one defense that felt the sting of Doniphan-Trumbull's incredible Jordan Slough, his offensive line and the Cardinal's own swarming defense. ...
Class C-2 Playoff Capsules: Fremont Bergan (8-2) @ David City Aquinas (10-0) (Tuesday 6:30) Aquinas is the defending state champion and wears the favorite role again this season. Coach Ron Mimick's Monarchs have swept through another season employing the services of many, many players to subdue opponents, often before halftime. ...
