I have been with the Standard Democrat sports department since 2007. I took over as sports editor in May of 2011 and have been slightly crazy about sports since I can remember. I attended Southeast Missouri State University and Scott County Central High School. I co-created our sports web show "The Last Word" and my two children, Elijah and CJ. I was married to my wife, Angie, in May of 2014. I love to golf, I am an avid NBA2K gamer and root for the Fighting Irish on Saturdays.

New year, new Last Word

Posted Thursday, January 9, 2014, at 8:39 PM

This is our first episode of the new year and we're happy to be back at it for 2014.

Myself and David Jenkins discuss Holiday hoops tournament results and preview the second half of the high school basketball season. We also include a look ahead to "The Bragging Rights" games at the Show Me Center between Oran vs. Bernie and Sikeston vs. Charleston. I also give my two cents about my alma mater and the recent unwarranted backlash towards it's head coach. Enjoy!
