It was a good day for area teams Overton, Minden and Axtell all won their first round games. Overton plays at 10:45 against Humphrey St. Francis. We will have the game on 93.1 KRVN FM. As a former Whippet it was good to see Minden beat Falls City!

Looking forward to covering the state basketball tournament. We will have the Overton game on Thursday against Randolph. Scott Foster will join me on the broadcast pregame at 1:45pm tip off at 2pm. Also good luck to the rest of the area teams including Minden, Axtell, and Ravenna.

Glad to see New Orleans win the super bowl. Many years of suffering although I wonder if that's a sign of the apocalypse? Hope not!

It's a big week for Husker basketball. Tonight the undefeated Lady Huskers host 19th ranked Texas. Nebraska is coming off a big win over Iowa State on Saturday night. On Wednesday the Husker men take on Kansas who figures to be in a bad mood after losing for the first time on Sunday to Tennessee. We will have both games for you on AM 880.

Hope you survived the Christmas blizzard. What a strange storm, started on Tuesday night and was still causing problems into Sunday in eastern Nebraska. I'm looking forward to watching the Huskers on Wednesday night in the Holiday Bowl against Arizona. The Wildcats have a nice team, but I think if NU can generate  just a little bit of offense they should be ok. I say NU 20 Arizona 17.
