With the history of LNE basketball, I don't think you would call them "special", but the 2015 team made it to the semi's of state, and beat undefeated Norfolk in the 1st round. (Full disclosure, my son was on the 2015 team, and I am a 77 grad)
I think he is referring to the 90's and their run of I think 4 straight championships. They won it in 82 also which was the best high school class in NE history. Trotter, Kellogg, Hoppen and so on but it was LNE that won it all. That was back when the top players stayed true to their school and tried to beat the other great players with their lifelong teammates instead of transferring to the same school like little kids stacking the best team on the play ground in a pick up game.
They are the Nebraska football of Nebraska high school basketball. An elite program over 75 years but nothing special the last 20.
I have no real insight, but he will be the alpha there and would have to share that at LSW.
LNE class of 93 here. And have a class of 25 child there so maybe I'll hear something in the coming months.
