For the second year in a row, the Omaha World-Herald named Philly Lammers the captain of its All-Nebraska team. Lammers was joined by five of her teammates with All-Nebraska accolades.

Since 1992, 14 Concordia women’s basketball teams have appeared at the national tournament with four advancing all the way to the national semifinals. But in 2015, the Bulldogs reached new heights by motoring to the national title game for the first time in program history.
It’s a Tuesday evening in the middle of July and two brothers have reunited over a familiar round, orange and leather-coated object that has been prevalent in their lives since birth.
