Nevadaref If the assignments that I've seen remain unchanged, one of our forum members, Tomegun, will be working the Nevada Division 1 (large school) boys State Final this Friday night. More impressive, this isn't his first time doing so! Congrats man!!!
Camron Rust Congrats Tom! Can't believe your state is already at the Finals. We start the first round this weekend with the finals being the 2nd Saturday in March.
grunewar HOORAH! Congrats. Quite an accomplishment, Kudos to you sir! Similar to Camron, we're still early and in Regionals.
bob jenkins I think someone else on this list is working the state finals in WI. Congrats to all who are working post season, or working the "next level" for the first time.
JRutledge Congrats to my friend. Wish you the absolute best. Have a blast. We have not even started our playoffs for the big schools (3A-4A). That starts next week. Then in 3 weeks, they will have the State Finals at that level. The smaller schools (1A-2A) Finals will be the week before. Smaller school boy's started this week. Peace
Rich Congrats, Tom. DFIU! We worked our first round boys game last night. Still a long road ahead -- first round girls isn't until March 4. Boys final is March 15 and girls final is March 22.
Rich stripes wroteCongratulations. The first one is always special. Be sure to enjoy the moment. I don't think it's Tom's first rodeo, but that doesn't make it any less of an accomplishment.
BillyMac Zoochy wroteYou da man! Boom goes the dynamite. Wait? I'm being told ... What? But I thought we were posting things that guys yell out? No? Alright. Never mind.
Nevadaref To those who asked: the favorites to be in this boys final are Canyon Springs of north Las Vegas and Bishop Gorman. CS is public and has an enrollment of just over 2600 although under the current NV system any school over 1200 is put in D1. There are currently four divisions. There has been talk of creating a fifth for the biggest schools, perhaps over 1800 or 2000 but that hasn't happened yet. Gorman is private and has won the State championship for the past few years. Maxpreps ranks them 20th in the country.
