Basketball 

Basketball is having off-season practice time and practices after school.  

“Being able to knock down open shots is really important for us and makes the game much easier obviously,” said Head Coach Thomas Liechti. 

At the beginning of June, the basketball team will start working on skill work and weightlifting every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. On June 17 and 18, the basketball team will travel to Kansas City for a camp where they will play four games against schools from Iowa, Kansas, and Missouri.  

Cheerleading 

The head coach of cheerleading, LaTerra Pierce, says they will also be practicing throughout the summer. 

Cheerleaders will go down to Lincoln to learn new skills for four days. Cheerleaders meet other teams and will compete in dance, cheer, and sidelines. The sidelines are when the cheerleaders keep the fan spirit high during games.

“Golfers are encouraged to participate in a six-week program sponsored by the Nebraska Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA) that includes one on one training, skills development and competitions,” said the golf’s team head coach Corey Degner.  

The golfers learn from PGA, college golfers and other area coaches. At the end of the six-week program, they have a tournament.  

Degner encourages the golfers to get out and play with their friends and family or their teammates.  

“We will also look into getting together a few times at the driving range as a team,” said Degner. 

The golfers could also sign up for Youth on Course or Clubs Fore Youth programs. The program organizes many tournaments during the summer, and they offer discount fees at area courses.

The girls’ volleyball team plans conditioning on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from nine to 11 a.m. at King Science. The head coach Marguita Bowden says they have a summer League game on Tuesday evenings at the Bellevue Lied Center.

Baseball 

The baseball team legion season tryouts are going to be May 11 and 12. Thier games start May 22.  

“Legion season is just like the spring season. The only difference now is the teams are not affiliated with the schools,” said Janecek. 

The baseball teams are now sponsored by businesses or companies. They play teams in Nebraska and surrounding states.  

Many students plan to go to these activities to help them with their sports season.
