The Harlem Globetrotters will return to Salina and this time they will have a hometown hero on the team – Hannah “Mighty” Mortimer.
As the 17th female player in the team’s 92-year history, Mortimer has wowed fans near and far with her ball handling skills, energetic playing style and hustle. She will be welcomed back to Salina as a full-fledged member of the World-Famous Harlem Globetrotters on Monday, February 4th at 7 pm at Tony’s Pizza Events Center.
Piper High School’s Ryan Cobbins gives back to her community in more ways than just basketball.
She is among the top players in the state of Kansas. The four-year starter has eclipsed 1,000 points in her career and has earned All-State honors her freshman, sophomore, and junior seasons.
According to Cobbins, her nomination as a McDonald’s All-American is the accomplishment she’s most proud of, and even though she wasn't selected she says the nomination is an acknowledgement of her work thus far.
Kansas Pregame Winter Covergirl Aubree Dewey, a junior for the Plainville Cardinals, heaved up 3/4 court bomb to close out the third quarter of Tuesday night's game with Trego, and much like the rest of the shots she puts up, it went in, giving the Cardinals a 25-24 lead. Plainville would eventually lose 42-36 to fall to 7-7 on the season, but Dewey scored 27 and remains one of the most prolific scorers in all of Kansas girls basketball averaging nearly 29 points per game.
