Another tough loss in a tough season. Warms my heart though to see the player Kaleb looks up to playing some one on one with him after the game.
It’s so much more than Ws & Ls…….

Thank you to everyone who reached out over the last few days. It really means a lot to me. Every journey is unique, but those who remain in our lives afterwards are what make coaching special.

This has been a young group that has taken their lumps in a tough league this season. They show up everyday, go hard, and have been great teammates through the journey. So happy that the Basketball Gods smiled on them tonight!

Words can’t explain how proud I am of this team and their commitment to the process here at CR! One step away from State for the first time since 1983.
Two weeks ago they beat us by 33. Tonight we returned to Andover and knocked out the

seed to move on that Section Championship!

To my young colleagues aspiring to be Head Coaches someday….who you choose as your assistants is one of the most important decisions you’ll make.
I could not ask for a better group of dudes to plot, plan, and laugh with. Blessed to do this with them!

A mentor, who became a rival, who will always be a friend! I owe so much to Arzy. He gave this young buck a chance to grow as a coach and was a friendly voice/text on the dark nights of the rebuild when I got to CR. Cheers to a great coach but most importantly a great person!

Truly a sad, sad day. These kids work their tails off together for years for these moments that, win or lose, last a lifetime. So many great coaches and young men/women have had their journeys end so unfairly.
Updated statement from the Minnesota State High School League:
Amid growing concerns about the COVID-19 pandemic, the remainder of the girls state basketball tournament and boys section/state basketball tournaments have been canceled. The safety of all concerned is paramount.

Hard to believe this is going to be Year 7 already at CR. Love what we have built here and the relationships across many levels of our program. Excited to mold the 19-20 version of the squad this summer!
Awesome first day of Camp! Loved the energy from both the youth and HS levels. Love the amount of HS guys wanting to help with the youth as well....it’s how our culture spreads!

7th summer in the books for me here at CR. Nothing like watching the kids from youth camp grow into the leaders at the High School level. Truly blessed to serve this program and watch it’s members grow.
Wrapped up our Summer Skills today for both youth and HS guys with a fun session of competitions!
Love the energy and numbers we had in the gym all summer long. We continue to make strides here at CR!

I still remember “that tough guy on the 6-Red team.” Jackson put in the work over the years and had himself a fantastic career. It has truly been an honor to coach him and watch him grow.
Congrats to Jackson Aurelius on being NWSC All-Conference.
Jackson finished as the 11th leading scorer in program history!

Never easy when the journey ends. Proud of this group and who they grew up to be. No loss will take that away.
This was not the result we wanted tonight. However nothing takes away from great season we had and impact that these seniors have made on us. This program is in a better place because of you 5. We love you….we will miss you.

Fought hard to get back in it tonight at Duluth but came up short in the end. This was an amazing ride for our program and makes us hungry to finish the job next year.
Can’t say enough our seniors. We love you dudes! Thank you for the journey....

Thank you, Steve Stone! The 100 loss team was more enjoyable than this one. They were not talented but they played the game hard. Watching this group waste talent with lack of effort and basic fundamentals has been awful.

One of the best young men I’ve had the privilege of coaching. Can’t wait to see where he ends up playing next year. Some coach is getting an absolute winner on and off the court!
Not to be denied this season! Congrats to captain Elijah Smith on being named All-Conference.
Elijah also finishes his career as the 9th leading scorer in program history. A great career for an even greater young man!

One of my favorite times of the year. It’s been a joy to watch kids grow in our program over these last 6 years and even see many of them through their senior seasons with me at the Varsity level. Honored to be able to be the Head Coach of this program!
We were able to see all 12 of our travel teams in action this weekend. Love the defensive intensity we’re seeing and are excited for the future in The Nest!
