A scant 75 days ago I called my first ever hockey game. Last night I called the state tourney, perched atop Xcel Energy Center where the likes of Anthony LaPanta Joe O'Donnell normally sit. Incredible. And a big shout out to Steve Thomson - no better partner in the booth! 🏒🎙️💯

Energy through the roof here @XcelEnergyCt’s Roy Wilkins Auditorium for the Minnesota State High School League class AA gymnastics state meet! Been loud since the Parade of Champions (caught the CDH Raiders on their way in) and now on the call for the vault. Catch all the events LIVE on NSPN - Minnesota!

Was looking for a little technical guidance to call vault & a Minnesota State High School League volunteer pointed me Mark Sikich. Turns out he’s a Wolfpack Activities legend. And rightfully so! Taught me more in 10 minutes than I could’ve learned in 10 years. Simply awesome. High school sports are the best.

Swim meets are such a blast. Saw two Minnesota State High School League records fall, this one for Davis in the pool and one from IRISH’s Gerten on the diving board. And as expected, got a great battle between Edina Boys Swim/Dive & Minnetonka Boys Swim & Dive for the team title. 🎙️+ 🏊‍♂️ = 💯

Looking forward to calling Benilde-St. Margaret's v Centennial Cougars at 5p on NSPN - Minnesota today. Also have Eden Prairie Eagles v Eagan Wildcats at 3p. Could be a tight one. Eagles 5-5 in games decided by 2 goals or less, while #5 ranked Wildcats are 3-0. Eagles the visitors on home turf...

As we prepare to come out of a weather delay here Minnesota State High School League AAA Golf on NSPN - Minnesota, here’s a walk and talk look at the 18th. It’s a feisty pin position they’ve got today. Sadly wasn’t allowed to show off my Johnson Wagner chipping skills.

Congrats to Owatonna High School Activities Director Carmen Jirele on a great win against some very tough competition! Out of 87 golfers, she was one of two competitors to go under par Bunker Hills Golf course in challenging conditions…a well earned Minnesota State High School League championship!

Saw a lot, and I mean A LOT, of exceptional golf shots at the 18th hole while broadcasting the final rounds for both boys and girls at the Minnesota State High School League AAA state championships today. But this was the shot of the day. Incredible. cc: Golf Channel PR ESPN USGA
