SOUTH DOWNS NORTH IN 65th SHRINE BOWL SATURDAY:
The 65th annual Nebraska Shrine Bowl was in doubt. Rain and lightning continued to pour onto Ron and Carol Cope Stadium shortly after kickoff.
But after two hours of waiting, the South team took control to pick up a 17-7 victory over the north team.
Kearney High’s Treyven Beckman started the contest for the South team at quarterback. Beckman ended 6-16 for 104 yards and an interception including a 48 yard toss to Adonis Hutchinson. The Bearcats’ Jack Dahlgren recorded a tackle on defense. Grand Island Senior High’s Colton Marsh ended with five total tackles.
The 66th annual Nebraska Shrine Bowl is scheduled for Saturday, June 1, 2024.
HUSKER VOLLEYBALL WRAPS WEEKEND WITH SWEEP IN BRAZIL:

HEAT TIE SERIES IN DENVER:
The Heat tied the NBA Finals and had to overcome a monster 41-point effort from Nikola Jokic to do it. Gabe Vincent scored 23 points, Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo each had 21 and Heat beat the Denver Nuggets 111-108 in Game 2 on Sunday night.
They were down by as many as 15 points, down eight going into the fourth, and those numbers signified they were going to lose. Denver was 11-0 in these playoffs when leading by double digits at any point in a game, and 37-1 this season overall when leading by at least eight going into the fourth.
The series heads to Miami for Game Three on Wednesday.
