Three years ago this month, I was offered the sports editor job at the Greene County Daily World. Well, now I am vacating the sports editor job...

Multiple years went into the recruiting of Linton grad Joey Hart and the road finally ended Saturday when he committed and moved into Kentucky the same day. The recruitment of Hart was an up close example of how weird college recruiting is, especially college basketball...

Earlier this year I wrote about the fierce competition between Linton, Bloomfield and North Daviess on the basketball court. After sectional baseball on Monday, now I wonder if baseball might be even better locally...

I have been covering high school sports in our state for about a decade but Saturday was a little special for me. The class of 2023 was the first class of kids I felt close too...

On television, I see celebrities and random stories of men talking about how exciting it was to become a father. Well, that was their story...

It has been an eventful four months in Linton for its basketball team — on and off the court — and hopefully, things will start to slow down. Linton is a small town that is passionate about its athletic teams. Sometimes that passion can lead to divisions like it did these past four months...

Driving over 200 miles and watching two regional basketball games proved to be a memorable day in my sports writing career. I saw the joy Linton had in winning a regional just hours after the heartbreak Bloomfield felt in losing its chance...

It’s been a special winter in Greene County with Linton and Bloomfield locking down the No. 1 rankings in two of the four classes in our state. Like all winters, they eventually end. Just like the home slates for Greene County’s powerhouse basketball teams. Friday is the final time you can see Linton’s senior class and Bloomfield’s senior class play at home...

Welp. We are here again. Bloomfield girls basketball has gone further than what people thought they could. If that sounds familiar it’s because that is something the Lady Cardinals have done the last three seasons...

When I open a web browser the stories that would pop up used to be important. In 2023, it seems the top news story is about news reporters at ABC having an affair. I don’t understand how we got here...

After watching Linton come back from 10 down to top North Daviess last Friday all the games this weekend feel like a letdown. What we saw a week ago when senior Joey Hart hit a shot to win the game in Elnora is a moment of the season that will never be overshadowed...

It happens every year where a big basketball game in the county takes place at the same time as a family gathering. Welcome to parenthood as a sports editor. My wife’s family gets together every year for a Christmas gathering and its something we all enjoy. ...

Sunday saw the NFL season come to an end for the Indianapolis Colts. When a season ends with relief you know the year was bad. The Colts had one final game against the Houston Texans at home and many were dreading it. Two teams in the bottom five of the league with nothing to play for. However, that’s my type of game...

What many thought could be the game of the year in the National Football League turned into a night of prayer for one player on the Buffalo Bills. Every sports fan in the country watched Damar Hamlin collapse on the field at Cincinnati in a moment that will be talked about for years...

Before the First Financial Bank Wabash Valley Classic took place I knew there was a chance Linton could play Bloomfield in the final game but thought that was wishful thinking...

The World Cup is down to just a couple games with the final Sunday. I have enjoyed the tournament even though it came in December. The World Cup is far better in the summer where it has the stage. In Qatar, that would not work as it is too hot in the summer to host the event...

By the time you are reading this in the print edition of our newspaper, Evansville Mater Dei will playing in the 2A state title game in Indianapolis. Just a couple of weeks ago, I thought Linton would be playing in that spot instead...

Last weekend was a long one. After covering Linton’s regional win over Lapel, my family had the quick turnaround of driving to Kentucky for the funeral of my grandfather...

If you think things are getting crazy in “Miner Country” you would be right. It is to the point where no matter what I do I am sure my performance would be inadequate as sports editor. That is because we have the biggest football game Linton has played in six years followed by the biggest volleyball game the school has ever played in just over 15 hours later on the other side of the state...

Nate’s Notes This year is shaping up to be one of the best years ever for Linton sports and this group of girls who play volleyball is a big reason why. Even if they don’t win the girls would have gone the furthest of any Linton volleyball team in program history just by showing up to the Jasper Semi-state Saturday...
