In non-BV news, my dad won his 500th game of his high school basketball coaching career last night. That’s a number I’ll probably never come close to, but I hope I can at least coach as long. His only comment: “I hope no one asks how many I’ve lost.” 💜
Moose, thank you for inspiring us all in unimaginable ways - ways no one your age should ever have to. We are all
#MooseStrong
forever because of your impact on this world.
#FaithOverFear
Tied for the best start in school history! 🙌🏼 Undefeated through non-conference play, but the real season begins right back in Lincoln on Wednesday! 💪🏼
#RollBeavs
It’s a win for the Beavers! 🙌🏽8-0🙌🏽
Dominic Sesma made the most points this afternoon with 23 points, and stats of 57.1% field goal and 70% from the 3-point line!
Recruits of all kind, I can’t speak for every coach or recruiter, but let me say this if you’ve had any contact with me:
🗣 I’m not about burning bridges. I will not hold your college decision against you. Even if you rule BVU out, I’m still happy to help you any way I can.
So incredibly proud of these guys. Going into the season, we weren’t entirely sure what our expectations should be, but we wanted to do something special, even though we weren’t sure what that might look like. It didn’t end how we wanted, but something special was achieved. 💛💙
🔸FINAL🔸
These men left it all on the court tonight as they finished their 2019-2020 basketball season.
Thanks to our seniors for all of your effort these past years, we will miss you this fall 💙🤍
With

victory tonight, and the hat-tip to

I get a lot of questions about how I store my shoes, so I thought it was time to finally share my main display.
Not pictured: dress shoes, boots, almost all shoes I actually play basketball in, & pairs I keep in my car & office just in case.

Kobe was my first favorite player. His jersey was the first one I remember getting. When I was in third grade, my dad drove me to Minneapolis on a school night to see my first NBA game, the Lakers and the Timberwolves in the playoffs; of course I wore my

Kobe jersey.
It wasn’t the prettiest win, but it still goes in the W column.
Also, it is January 4th and we just matched our win total from all of last season. Don’t expect this team to slow down either 👀
Let's Play One More.
The Beavers are championship bound as they will head to Dubuque on Saturday to take on the top seeded and 7th ranked Spartans at 4:00pm!

Thank you to
@DanaBecker
for a great article! Extremely flattered that he reached out about my coaching career. I’m incredibly blessed and fortunate to be where I am right now.
Not the slightest bit surprised. I’m very grateful to be working with and learning from one of the best up-and-coming coaches in the business!

Not the way we wanted today to go, but couldn’t be prouder of how this team competed together all season. It hurts to lose our incredible seniors who have done so much for this program. BV Basketball is only going up from here!

Super proud of this guy after everything he’s endured in the last year or so. Even though it’s Dom’s name on the award, we know this honor is a huge testament to our entire team and all the work they are constantly putting in.

I am so grateful to play the tiniest role in this incredible community. When I recruit students to BVU, I’m also recruiting them to the Storm Lake community. The reality is that in order to be a good fit for BVU, you have to be a good fit for Storm Lake.
The Beavers take down Elmira College to stay undefeated. Gunner Reed scores 19 and pulls down seven rebounds.
Next up: A-R-C play begins when Central comes to town on Wednesday. Tip-off at 7:30 p.m.

Could not agree more. As disappointing as they are, I love the courtesy, hearing where they’re going and why, and being able to thank them for going through the process with us. The relationships we build with recruits & their families don’t have to end when they choose elsewhere
Call me crazy, but I actually like when a guy I’m recruiting calls to tell me that they made a decision to go somewhere else. That shows a lot of courage and high character. I will always congratulate them and wish them the best of luck.
Instagram saw it a while ago, but I need to wish the happiest of birthdays to the love of my life and my best friend 😍
Thank you for making this world a better place every day ❤️
Need to give a big congratulatory shoutout to
@ElDalto63
on a great career at Southeast Warren! He always gave his all - body included - and was a strong leader for four years. Very proud of what we achieved in my two years at SEW, and we now have a bond to last a lifetime.
🤯 Wow. BVU men's basketball with a MONSTER second half to breeze past Central 97-67 in the regular season finale. Beavers will begin A-R-C tournament play at home this Tuesday, March 9.

The top two teams in the A-R-C meet up tonight in Storm Lake as

tips-off the second half of the league schedule. No. 9 Neb. Wesleyan has won 17 straight A-R-C games, dating to last season. BVU has won 10-of-11 at home.

Kobe helped me fall in love with the game of basketball about as much as anyone. He inspired so many young hoopers, and he touched so many lives around the world. My heart hurts for his family, everyone who loved him, and the game of basketball today.
Celebrating four years with
@12Fast_futbol
this weekend. Only forever left to go with my beautiful, hardworking, anime-loving best friend and loudest cheerleader ♾
Accountability is a win today. Much more change is still needed, but I hope today brings people some peace and a bit of the healing so many need.
Continued prayers to George Floyd’s family as they continue to heal.

The energy behind the mic is always huge in enhancing the atmosphere in Siebens Fieldhouse! Have to give a huge thanks to Ryan and the countless people helping make things run for us at home!

Proud of the Mikes for playing two really good games down in Salem this week. Looking forward to seeing them continue to do so in conference play coming up again next week!

The Beavers take on the Central Dutch tonight in Siebens Fieldhouse for their last home game of conference! Come to the gym to show our seniors some love 💙💛
I’ve absolutely loved getting to go to work with these three guys the last three years, and they deserve a great celebration tonight. It’s only fitting to send them out with a win!
Tonight we honor our three graduating seniors!
Joe, Ryan and Brendan have been outstanding members of our program and the BVU community.
We look forward to celebrating all of their accomplishments during the past four years and wish them the best moving forward!

Looking through schedules and planning out my entire weekend, taking notes no one else can read in a packet that’s already falling apart by 3PM on the first day, the exhaustion of 14 straight hours of basketball...
Missing it all very badly right now 💔
