Luke Mullin and Amie Just have the latest Life in the Red Podcast episode, which centers Big Ten Tournament hoops and football.
Future Nebraska women’s basketball player Logan Nissley is a three-time winner of the Gatorade girls basketball player of the year for North Dakota.
The latest honor for the senior at Century High School in Bismarck was announced Wednesday. The award recognizes not only outstanding athletic excellence, but also high standards of academic achievement and character.
Nissley also was the state Gatorade player of the year for volleyball twice.
The 5-foot-10 guard has led the Patriots (18-3) to this week's Class A state tournament. She averages 21.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, 4.2 steals and 2.6 assists per game.
“Logan is the best player in the state by a long way,” Century coach Bill Shetler said in a news release. “We have had a lot of super talented girls in the state over the last few years, but none of them have the total impact on the game the way Logan does. She’s on a different level.”
