a lot more wins and I think everyone is a lot more com- fortable this year,” Haneborg said. “Having the same coach for a second straight year is big in terms of us being confi- dent and comfortable with our plays and defense.” Another key cog for the Bull- dogs is junior forward Abby Orr. The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga softball com- mit averaged just over five points and just under six re- bounds, but is just scratching the surface of her hoops poten- tial according to Hammond. “Abby is just figuring out how good of a basketball play- er she can be,” Hammond said of his 6-foot-1 post presence. “She’s committed to play Di- vision I softball, but if she set her mind to it she’d have a pretty good opportunity to play basketball at the next lev- el too. I think she’s a lot more confident and comfortable this year and I think she’ll make a big jump.” Along with Orr, 6-foot fresh- man Carly Purdy will give North Platte some much need- ed size in the paint.
“Having (Orr and Purdy) i going to help a lot, because out side of those two, we’re kind o the 5-9 and under crew,” Ham mond said. “Having those two especially when we get the on the court in key times whe we need to rebound is going t a big deal for us.” With experience on her side Orr has been a willing teache to Purdy on what to expect a the varsity level. “We’ve both worked togeth er on being more aggressive, Orr said. “In Class A, especial ly the Omaha teams, they’r really aggressive.” With the move back to Clas A Hammond knows for hi team to be successful, it wil take everybody working a one. “‘We not me’ is our motto We want everybody to be excit ed for everyone else’s success, he said. “If you’re only worrie about yourself, that only get you so far. We have a grea group of kids that work reall hard together and love play ing together, so we’re going t keep working and keep build ing and see where things go.”
play hard and see what hap- pens and we ended up 12-10 and district runner-up to Crete, which ended up in the state final. This year we have ex- pectations, which is a little dif- ferent, because we haven’t had expectations in a while. Last year, we got kind of got it start- ed going in the right direction and now we feel like we have a pretty good chance to be suc- cessful.” One player who’s seen the full spectrum is senior guard Callie Haneborg. The multi-sport standout played as a freshman when the Bulldogs won just one game and has had three coaches in four years. Last season, Hane- borg averaged just under 7 points per game, 3.3 rebounds, two assists and just under three steals. Her quickness and anticipation makes her a catalyst for the Bulldog de- fense. “Callie’s a great player. I wish she wasn’t a senior and
we had her another year,” Hammond said. “She makes what we do on defense work. She finds a way to guard who- ever we put her on. She frus- trates the heck out of people.” Now, as a senior Haneborg has the same coach as she did the year before and is primed to go out with a productive fi- nal season. “I think the big thing is that this group has really came together over these past few years. We’re all on the same page in terms of what we want. Everyone knows each other’s strengths and we’re playing well as a group.” North Platte also returns one of the best players in the state in junior guard Gracie Haneborg, who is getting Divi- sion I interest. Last year as a sophomore, she averaged just shy of 18 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 4.6 steals. She too is anticipating big things this season. “I feel like we’re expecting

With blend of youth and experience, Irish will lean on defense, balanced scoring attac
anced this winter. “I think we’ve got a group of guys that collec- tively have a good skill set and the ability to score,” said O’Malley, who is in his ninth season with the Irish. “We’ve got some good athleticism (on the team) and for the large part, our success we have will come down to our ability to play defense.” The man-to-man de- fense that the Irish em- ploys has been a key of the program under O’Malley and will be a focus again this season. “We have a couple of guys we lost from last year that we’re really good defenders — just ag- gressive and active — and we will need to replace that,” O’Malley said. Some of that reinforce- ment could come from ju- niors Corby Condon and Trayton White, a 5-foot-11 guard and 6-foot-3 for- ward, respectively, and Jack Heiss, a 6-foot sopho- more guard. All three are expected to have bigger roles with the Irish this season. Condon and Heiss con- tribute to the St. Pat’s depth in the backcourt, which is one of the team’s
strengths this year. “I think that is proba bly fair to say,” O’Malley said of his backcourt. “W also feel we have some guys who can come off th bench and contribute and have the ability to pla key roles in some spots. “It’s just hard to know how quickly you’re team is going to take shape, O’Malley said. “You just have to start in and play as well as you can right now and continue to work on weaknesses You just try to just mak steady gains and improv (during the season).” O’Malley said Chas County and Bridgepor both return the most ex perience from last year and with that should b considered a favorite i the South Platte River As sociation this season. He added after that, it coul be wide open in the stand ings. “The rest of us don’ have as many players re turning, but everybody has guys they feel can play,” O’Malley said. “It will just be a matter over the next six weeks or s before it is conference tournament time.”
By TIM JOHNSON tim.johnson@nptelegraph.com Charles Aufdenkamp enters the season as not only one of the top return- ing scorers for the St. Pat’s boys basketball team, but also the most experienced varsity player on the Irish roster. The 5-foot-11 senior for- ward, who averaged 8.3 points and 5.1 rebounds per game last year, has earned three letters during his prep career and is a veteran voice for a program which brings back three starters from a 10-15 campaign. “He has just been a re- ally good contributor for us the last three years,” Irish head coach William O’Malley said. “He is just really active around the basket and a physical player for us.” Senior guard Dolan Branch and 6-foot-3 junior forward Alex Davies aver- aged 10.4 and 3.1 ppg last year, respectively. Branch and Davies, who aver- aged 5.1 and 4.3 rebounds per game round out the Irish returning starters and are part of a St. Pat’s offense which O’Malley feels will be pretty bal-

situations as much as maybe a starter would be in.” Sellers is one of four se- niors on the Irish roster — joined by Kinsey Skillstad, Graci Castillo and Julie Slat- tery. St. Pat’s does not have a ju- nior on the team, but is bol- stered by sophomores Kate Stienike, Jenna Kimberling and Jayla Fleck, along with freshmen Kinley Folchert, Tonja Heirigs and Mae Siegel. Heirigs, a starter at guard, averaged a team-high 16 points a game as the Irish won two of three games to open the season. “Like any group that hasn’t played much together before in game situations, you al- ways wonder as a coach how they are going to gel,” Stie- nike said. “So far they have gelled great and that starts with our senior leaders. They don’t put any pressure on our younger kids, they just let them play. “(The team) has exceed- ed my expectations so far,” Stienike said. “With so many new faces I was expecting a few more bumps along the way this early. The girls have handled everything that has been put in front of them.” Stienike feels Chase Coun- ty and Bridgeport could be the favorites in the South Platte River Association but added his team should be in the mix as well. “We don’t worry too much about it until mid-January when we’re starting to think about the conference tourna- ment,” Stienike said. “Hope- fully by then we’ll be playing even better ball than we are right now and make another trip to the conference finals.”
By TIM JOHNSON tim.johnson@nptelegraph.com The lineup has changed significantly for the St. Pat’s girls basketball team this season, but the goals remain the same. The Irish graduated four starters from last year’s squad and the one that re- turned — 6-foot senior post Jocylin Sellers — is out un- til roughly Christmas with a bone contusion on her knee. “Even though we’ve got all these new faces, we’re going to keep doing what we do,” said Irish coach Nathan Stie- nike, who is in his 17th sea- son with the program. “We are going stress our pressure defense and rebounding. We’re still going to run the floor, shoot a lot of (3-point- ers) and try to play a fun style of basketball. “It would be nice to get healthy and get (Sellers) back on the court and then just continue to work on the little things,” Stienike said. “I think this team has so much room for growth. We just need to continue to work hard in practice each day and every time we step on the court.” Led by defense that em- ploys a full-court press and also a 1-3-1 system, that Irish style of basketball has result- ed in a trip to the state tour- nament in six out of the past seven seasons. “We still have those same expectations we’ve had in the past. Our goal is to qualify for the state tournament,” Stie- nike said. “A lot of these girls played in games last year so they have that experience at the varsity level. It just might not have been in the crucial

ley, Blake Vaughn, Sky- ler Geier-Dodson, Logan Miles, Kole Weigel, Drue Huntsman and Peyton Dimmitt. Those are all guys that are going to be battling throughout the season and will hopefully get some varsity spots and give themselves a chance to get to the state tourna- ment.” This offseason, Hall and the Bulldogs not only worked on their tactical abilities, but also focused on team building. “We went to a team camp in Dubuque, Iowa, called Iron Sharpens Iron. We did some team bond- ing activities and it was just great,” Hall said. “I think that helped us get closer and hopefully that carries into the rest of the season. We want this to be a brotherhood where everybody is trying to do well for each other.” A longtime wrestling coach, Hall understands that each new season and each new group of wres- tlers presents different challenges. With the goal to be wrestling their best around district tie in Feb- ruary, Hall is observing the early season results closely. “The kids have been working hard (in prac- tice),” Hall said. “I don’t know if I’ve thrown too much at them or not enough. We’ll find out. We want to take it one match at a time and be better on day 100 than we were on day one.”
By DEREK NOEHREN dnoehren@nptelegraph.com Five returning state qualifiers and a sixth- place Class B state tour- ney finish a season ago has this year’s North Platte wrestling team hungry for more. Last season, a talented group of five sophomores all punched their ticket to Omaha, site of the Ne- braska State Wrestling Tournament. That group was led by Darian Diaz, who won a state title at 126 pounds by defeating Omaha Skutt Catholic’s Caleb Lazure in convinc- ing fashion with a 10-2 vic- tory. Meanwhile, Jaylan Ruf- fin finished fourth at 113 pounds, Gavyn Brauer was also fourth at 170, while Cash Arensdorf (160) and Brock Little (120) came away with sixth- place finishes. This year, the Bulldogs jump back up to Class A, but with the returning tal- ent and an influx of other skilled wrestlers, Bulldog head coach Dale Hall is confident. He also wants you to know his team is deeper than the five re- turning state-qualifying juniors. “I’d say the guys that medaled at the state tour- nament last year have a good chance at doing well again this year, but we have some other guys,” Hall said. “I think Gus Kreber will sneak up on some people.

shown a competitive fire every day at practice. We play with a lot of intensi- ty and the seniors have set the tone for what I think is going to be a real competitive year for us,” Kaminski said. The Bulldogs do re- turn five seniors, with Steven Garcia headlin- ing that group after lead- ing North Platte in scor- ing last season at 11.6 points per game. Garcia shot 45% from beyond the 3-point arc a season ago, giving North Platte an outside shooting pres- ence, while spacing the court for his teammates. “If you’re shooting in that 45% range, you can really light it up,” Ka- minski said. “That’s a credit to (Garcia). He’s loved basketball his en- tire life and has spent a lot of time in the gym putting up a lot of shots.” Aside from putting up points, Kaminski also expects the 5-foot- 10 sharp-shooter to take on more of a leadership role. “What he did last year was key for us and we
expect him to be more of a leader for us this year,” Kaminski said. “He’s a guy that every- one respects, and as a player he’s more than a shooter. He has ability to get to the rim and is a solid defender and plays with a lot of energy and motor. To have him back as a leader and as some- one who can teach these young kids has been key.” The other four seniors — Tanner Ruda, Aiden Mann, Finn Lucas and Derek Ramos — will all likely get their most ex- tensive playing time this season. With so many players expected to take on bigger roles, Kamins- ki is looking for guys to get comfortable early in the season. “I feel like we have at least 10 guys that can help us in some way,” Ka- minksi said. “Some are young, some are experi- enced, but I just want to see the kids get a feel for it and it’s about figuring out the puzzle and seeing which pieces fit where.”

We have a really good group this year.” Kaminski wants the trademark of this team to be its tenacity and fans can expect to see a group that gets after it. “This group had

We have a good mixture of experience back with some players who are finally healthy that can allow this team to show what they can truly do. I look for a tough start with opening with Lexington who will be good but a chance to compete is all these guys have asked fro all season. The Swedes will be a fun team to coach due to the character of our leaders. Our leadership can create advantages for this team.

Damen Pape, Hastings Ranked No. 16 in the country b WIN Magazine at 182, the senior finished 47-0 a year ago, beating another nationally ranked wres tler — Waverly’s Evan Canoye — in the 170-pound Class B final.
Here are some wrestlers to keep an eye on for the 2019-20 wrestling season. Maxx Mayfield, Lincoln East The senior, a Northwestern signee, is ranked No. 9 nation- ally by InterMat at 152 pounds and eighth at 145 by WIN Maga- zine, though Mayfield likely will wrestle at 160 for the Spartans. He went 51-1 as a junior, pinning three state tournament oppo- nents and earning a technical fall over the other. Another state gold would make Mayfield the first in Lincoln East history to win three. How do you follow up a perfect first campaign? Grice is about to find out. The sophomore went 49-0 during his freshman season on his way to the gold medal at 113 pounds. Grice is expected to move up to 120 this season, as is Omaha Central’s Emilio Haynes, whom Grice beat 4-3 in the state final. Gage Krolikowski, Valentine The lone wrestler going for a fourth title this season, Kroli- kowski is hoping to lead the Bad- gers to a fourth straight Class C team crown, as well. He went 41-0 during his junior year, winning a championship at 132. Four falls at the state tournament would give him the state’s record for career pins at the event. Garrett Grice, Bellevue East

but definitely deserved with the presence of veteran coach John Larsen and Creigh- ton recruit Morgan Maly, who averaged 20 points and 8.5 rebounds last season. The Cardinals graduated just one reserve from last year. 6. Millard North, 23-4, 1 TheMustangs won’t sneak up on anyone this season after capturing state last year as the No. 5 seed. Three starters graduat- ed from that squad but the return of guard Nicole Avila-Ambrosi, who averaged al- most 14 points last season, is a positive. 7. Papillion-La Vista, 22-5, 6 The Monarchs were one of the top Class A teams much of last year but three late-season losses and a first-round exit at state wasn’t the way Papio wanted to finish. Replacing playmaking guard Jo- sey Ryan won’t be easy but the return of 3-point bomber Olivia Boudreau will help. 8. Omaha Westside, 22-5, 7 Three senior starters return for the Warriors, who lost in the first round of last year’s state tournament. Five seniors graduated from that squad but the return of guard Ella Wedergren and forward Jas- mine McGinnis-Taylor makes Westside a threat. 9. Grand Island NW, 18-5, 9 The Class B Vikings crack the overall Top 10 coming off the school’s fourth state championship. The graduation of seven se- niors might be problematic but the return of All-Nebraska guard Whitney Brown, who averaged 16.4 points, is a big plus. 10. Lincoln Christian, 19-9, NR No, former all-stater Chloe Dworak hasn’t returned to the Crusaders. But coach Nick Orduna’s Class C-1 squad re- turns everyone from last year’s team that finished as the state runner-up and that’s good enough to make Christian an early favorite to make some noise.

Listed below are the Nebraska high school preseason girls basketball ratings by Omaha World-Herald staff writer Mike Patterson. Top 10, record, 2019 1. Millard South, 21-4, 5 The Patriots deserve the top spot with the return of eight seniors, including Divi- sion I commits Jayme Horan and Maddie Krull. This senior class is 71-11 the past three years and there’s only one way this group wants to finish the season. 2. Lincoln Pius X, 20-5, 3 The Thunderbolts have the inside game to give opposing teams problems but must replace graduated forward and top scor- er Kloee Sander. A triple-overtime loss to eventual champion Millard North in last year’s state tourney semifinals also will serve as motivation. 3. Fremont, 18-8, NR Any team coached by Kelly Flynn and led by Taylor McCabe, who averaged 18 points as a freshman, has to be considered a threat in Class A. The Tigers came ago- nizingly close to state last season, losing 57-56 to Papillion-La Vista in the district final. 4. Lincoln East, 19-7, 4 The Spartans upset Millard South in the first round of last year’s state tourney before losing in the semifinals. East re- turns everyone from that squad — includ- ing top scorer Charlotte Bovaird — so the motivation and talent are definitely there. 5. Crete, 21-6, NR An ambitious rating for a Class B squad
