Holdrege Basketball teams excel!

Congrats to the Holdrege girl's basketball team for taking third at the State Tournament. The girls beat Lexington by one. Lexington beat Holdrege twice earlier in the year. Holdrege lost to Seward #1, Elkhorn #2, and rated Lexington twice. Holdrege beat Beatrice by two for third place.

This week the Holdrege boys take on one of the top teams in all classes, South Sioux City. The Holdrege boys are seated eight with SOuth Sioux City seated first in Class B.

Mike Gesell plays for South Sioux City and will be a division I player. Hoperfully he will play for the Cornhuskers in a couple of years as he is now a junior. Great player and Holdrege has their hands full. But in basketball, you never know what may happen.

Nebraska plays Oklahoma State tomorrow in the Big 12. OSU is 8-0 in Big 12 opening round games so this will be a close one also. Nebraska pulls this one out 71-67. Then comes Kansas.... Look to Kansas or Kansas State to win the Big 12. Texas isn't playing its best ball right now and Texas A & M isn't that great. Nebraska can actually have a 50/50 chance against every team but Kansas or Kansas State.
