    Kimball law enforcement was led on a pursuit that ended in Pine Bluffs, Wyoming last Wednesday, February 27.

The suspect in the pursuit, though a name has not been disclosed by local authorities, was confirmed to have a restraining order in effect against them at the time of the... Full story

    Dave Faries, Editor|Mar 7, 2013

    For teams traveling to state, the clock resets to zero. Wins and losses are erased and the new season scaled down to one, two or three critical games. To make matters even more difficult, coaches and players come into Lincoln with little more than a few hours of videotape to guide them. Most teams in the state tournament bracket have never faced each other. “We don’t even play common opponents,” said Paul Reinertson, head coach at Gibbon, set to tip off against the Longhorns in the opening round... Full story
