Sheridan HS Basketball: The Sheridan High School boys basketball team redeemed themselves this past weekend and are now in a position to get the #1 seed for the upcoming regional tournament.

When Sheridan first played Laramie 1 month ago, the Broncs were blown out by 29 points, partially because they had trouble dealing with 6-foot-9 and UW bound Neil Summers.

Head Coach Jeff Martini explains what lessons were learned the first time, and what was done to correct things.

Sheridan hosts Campbell County this Friday.

A win against the Camels would move the Broncs into a 1st place tie in the 4A East Conference.

As for the girls, the score at halftime vs. Laramie was a little closer than they would’ve liked, but the team came out of the locker room and dominated the second half.

Head Coach Ryan Sullivan says there’s still a few weaknesses in the game plan to be worked on, but the team isn’t quite ready to peak just yet.

The Lady Broncs also host Campbell County this Friday, in what appears to be a battle for 3rd and 4th place.

University of Wyoming Basketball: The Wyoming Cowboys are back on the court today as the team hosts Air Force.
