This morning my 6th grade students had the idea to each take a crumpled up piece of paper and get in a line and shoot it into the trash can at 8:24. Every one of them said “Kobe!” when they did it. Now that’s a legacy.

Such a tremendous loss for our area. His passion for Kewanee basketball and the community was special. His ability to connect to his players was something I always respected. Condolences to the family, he will be missed.

Remote learning first yesterday: I see some steam coming from one of my 7th grader’s screens. I ask him what’s going on there. He calmly replies that he’s making some vegetable beef soup. At 9:00 in the morning. Wasn’t even mad, 100% impressed 😂
