Strangest moment I coached🏀 Late in 2004 State Championship game and Kearney Catholic shoots at the wrong basket and scores for us🏀 Refs are confused and award us the ball also. A score will put us in range again. While I sub guys, refs figure it out and give ball back to em🏀

All time moments that showed me how great high school sports are🏀2011 State Championship game. Joey Spellerburg ties game with a 3 late for Bergan🏀 Breaking huddle from timeout, crowd is deafening. Joey and I make eye contact and simultaneously exclaim “This is AWESOME”🏀🏀

Another funniest moment: Ben Manley scores 36 points in a game against a top 3 team in Iowa, all on layups 🏀assists from Buzz, Andre, Collin🏀🏀

Another funny moment🏀2011 State 1st round, we defend Sutton nearly 4 minutes to end 3rd quarter. We get a tip and Grant Techmeyer hits a buzzer 3, and high fives every cheerleader. On the bench I exclaim “We only need to do that 2 more times to win”🏀🏀

Shout out to the 2004 Crusaders on the 20th anniversary of your miracle run. I am still in awe of what you did🏀
