Coach Rick Collura and his Northeast Rockets huddle up at the 1998 state tournament. LNE won its fourth straight state title. Celebrate with a 4-peat shirt, with or without the pink sweater!

State Tournament, 50 years ago, 1976:
Lincoln Northeast's 54-52 win over Hastings was all over the papers. A dramatic game played in front of, likely, the biggest crowd to ever see a prep game in the state, over 13K.

Plus, a cool bonus shot of LNE/Norfolk from the AP.

Jeff, those mid-90’s northeast teams are still making me proud to be a rocket to this day.

Growing up as a Lincoln Northeast kid the mid 90’s was incredible for state basketball. Can never forget spending all day down there watching state basketball. The students on those old wooden bleachers on the sidelines was the best!

The mid-90s was a golden era for HS basketball in Lincoln. All four Class A schools (Northeast, Southeast, East, and Lincoln High) had high-level players and were among Nebraska’s top teams. The energy at Devaney when those teams played at State represented the best of HS sports.

That was a star studded team. I miss the pink sweater Collura wore.

Hard to believe any team with some of the names on that roster would be underdogs. How many went on to play college basketball, 5-6?

On this date 30 years ago, we were the defending state champs and the underdog heading into the Class A state championship. We walked out with the gold after defeating a very talented Columbus squad. The second of four consecutive titles for @LNEbbasketball in the 1990s.
