Cougars Win Two Drop One


By Clare Wiltse, Sports Contributor

The Cougar boys took on three quality opponents this week and came out with two wins and one loss.  Northeast had home wins against Cedar Bluffs and Humphrey/Lindsay Holy Family, but lot on the road to Stanton.

“This is a big week for us,” said Coach Lahm.  “Seedings for the East Husker tournament will be set after this weekend and depending how we fare could have a big impact on where were sit.  We could be as high as fourth and have a first round home game or drop to tenth.”

The Cougars met a physical match when (8-8) Cedar Bluffs came to town.  The Wildcats had a pair of 6′ 4″ posts  to challenge Anderson and Christoffersen and  sharp shooting guards that would stretch the L-D 1-3-1 zone.

Both teams attacked the paint. Northeast got three baskets by Alec Anderson and a three point play by Cole Christoffersen to take a 9-6 lead over Cedar Bluffs who had three scores from the lane.  The Wildcats nailed a pair of threes along with a driving lay-in to move to a five point lead.  In the last minute of period one Anderson came up with a pair of free shots and Tyler Hardeman scored to make it a one point game.  Cedar Bluffs beat the buzzer for a 16-13 lead.

The Cougars caught a break when one the Wildcat’s tall tandem picked up a second foul and sat the whole second period.   The Cougars moved out to a 32-21 half time lead. Alec Anderson came up with seven points.  5’10” Marcus Hegy was able to penetrate and score three times along with a three pointer.

Both teams were back at full strength after intermission and the pace of the game slowed as both teams played very deliberate office.  Cedar Bluffs blocked three shots and the Cougars made only one of nine shots.  Anderson’s goal and pair of free shots were the only Northeast scores while Cedar Bluffs came up with a 11 points including another buzzer beating three pointer for a 36-32 score.

The teams traded treys to open the fourth period before Cedar Bluffs tied the score after two straight baskets.  Alec Anderson made one of two free shots with 4:01 to play to break the tie.  Two minutes later Cole Christoffersen grabbed an offensive rebound and scored for a 42-40 lead.

Anderson got some breathing room with three point play with 1:14 to play.  Northeast led 45-41.  Cedar Bluffs’ sixth trey of the game made it a one point game again.  Marcus Hegy made both ends of a one and one for the winning 47-44 margin.

Alec Anderson score a double-double with 22 points and 11 rebounds.  Marcus Hegy added 12 point.

Cedar Bluffs shot 39 % for the game on 18 for  46 shooting.   The Cougar made 16 of 36 for 44%.  The Cougars won the rebounding battle  31 to 21.

The Cougars used a one -two punch to score a first period knock down on the way to a 63-49 win over (9-6) Humphrey/Lindsay Holy Family.

Alec Anderson scored the first fourteen points for the Cougars as the Bulldogs tried to play Northeast straight up on defense.  After they changed to a box-and-one defense to stop Anderson the Cougars turned to Marcus Hegy who scored the next nine points for a 23-9 lead at the quarter.

The rest of the quarters resulted in no change in the deficit.  In the second quarter Hegy and Christoffersen scored four each and Hunter Ferguson closed the period with a trey.

After intermission the scoring slowed to six points per team.  Christoffersen scored twice and Riecken added a basket.

H/LHF never could break the double digit lead in the fourth quarter.  Anderson came back to life with two goals  and Hegy scored three times as Northeast led 50-35.  The last two minutes LDNE made eleven of thirteen tries.  Riecken made four of five, Hegy made three of four and Christiansen and Anderson converted a pair.

Marcus Hegy had a game-high 22 points to lead Northeast.  Alec Anderson put in 20 points.  Cole Christoffersen had a double-double with10 points and 10 rebounds.

The Lady Cougars had a couple of tough EHC games over he weekend.  A slow start and three untimely errors in he fourth quarter led to a 61-49 loss to Humphrey/Lindsay Holy Family.

H/LHF had some long girls to run a 1-3-1 zone defense.  It gave Northeast fits as they could not penetrate it and they settled for outside shots.  They missed all six of their three point attempts.  Brianne Haskell and Abby Peterson score the team’s only goals as they trailed 6-111 at the quarter.

Haskell worked her magic as she was able to dribble through the zone and score.  She had ten points as Northeast railed 26-21 at the half.

The offense came to life in the third period.  Lexie Bacon drained four three-pointers and Northeast pulled to within  one point, 39-40.

H/LHF got the first four points of the fourth quarter before Lexie hit her fifth trey of the half.  After scores from the paint by Jessen and Peterson the Cougars were still down 47-46.   The Lady Bulldogs got two scores off of turnovers to build a 51-46.  Brianne Haskell gave the Cougars another three,  but the scoring ended there  as H/LHF scored ten unanswered points for a 61-49 win.

Bacon topped the team with 18 points and Haskell had 17 points.

Medicaid Expansion: Expensive, Unreasonable Risk


By Governor Pete Ricketts

“There is no such thing as a free lunch,” said Milton Friedman, winner of the 1976 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences. The advisor to President Ronald Reagan and British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher also said, “Nothing is so permanent as a temporary government program.” Both of these observations are grounded in truth and both apply to continuing efforts to expand Medicaid in Nebraska

.Medicaid is a joint federal and state program designed to be a safety net for the poorest and sickest citizens. Nobody wants to restrict access to healthcare, but we do want to halt the unnecessary expansion of the program which will shift Medicaid’s focus away from its core mission and expose our state’s budget to unreasonable risk.

Our Unicameral has wisely rejected Medicaid expansion three times in three years. Now, special interest groups and a few senators are pushing for Nebraska to expand Medicaid expansion by using taxpayer dollars to buy private insurance. While this is a new plan, it’s the same story: Medicaid expansion is an expensive and an unreasonable risk to Nebraska taxpayers.

Expanding Medicaid would increase the income limit for eligibility and add primarily able-bodied adults to the program with the federal government promising to match at least 90 percent of the cost. Currently, the federal government generally matches just over 50 percent of Medicaid costs for low-income individuals and families, including pregnant women, children, the elderly, and people with disabilities. States, including Nebraska, have an existing commitment to fund the remaining share to serve the core population of vulnerable citizens.

Research shows that numerous healthcare providers don’t take Medicaid patients because Medicaid only reimburses about half of what private insurance does. If we approve Medicaid expansion, it will make it more difficult for the children, elderly, and people with disabilities to get access to providers, posing a threat to the original intent of Medicaid. Current Medicaid enrollees will have to compete with tens of thousands of new enrollees for the limited number of providers who take additional Medicaid patients.

This year’s Medicaid expansion proposal, modeled after Arkansas, is an even bigger financial risk to Nebraska’s budget than previously rejected ideas. After just six months, the Arkansas expansion was $137 million, or 61 percent, over budget. One of reasons was because more people signed up than projected. State officials in Arkansas predicted a maximum of 215,000 able-bodied adults would enroll in Medicaid, but after a year and a half that number had surged to almost 300,000. After the surge, more than 40 percent of Arkansas citizens were on Medicaid, making Arkansas one of the most Medicaid-dependent states in the nation.

Furthermore, purchasing private insurance with federal dollars costs around $1,700 more per person each year than traditional Medicaid in
Arkansas. The U.S. Government Accountability Office found that the Arkansas expansion will cost taxpayers $778 million more in the first three years than basic Medicaid expansion would have.

In Nebraska, Medicaid has grown from 2.9 percent to almost 20 percent of our state budget. A study paid for by the State of Nebraska in 2015 found that expanding Medicaid under this plan using private insurance would cost 94 percent more than traditional Medicaid.

Supporters of expansion tout federal funding as a reason to expand Medicaid in Nebraska. Doing so would create a massive new entitlement dependent on unreliable federal funding. The federal government has a history of breaking their commitment to states. For example, the federal government originally promised to pay 40 percent of the cost of expanding special education, and now they pay less than 20 percent.

This proposal for expanding Medicaid is bad for Nebraska. Every year, the state has to balance our budget, which means we can’t spend money we don’t have. This Medicaid expansion proposal will shift the focus away from our most vulnerable populations and expose our state to additional risk, which creates barriers to tax relief, infrastructure investment, and expanded educational opportunities—all of which would create true economic opportunities for people in need.

Several Nebraska State Senators recently attended a press conference opposing Medicaid expansion. These senators include: Bloomfield, Brasch, Craighead, Friesen, Fox, Hilkemann, Hughes, Kintner, Kolterman, Kuehn, Lindstrom, Murante, Riepe, Schnoor, and Williams. Others said they wanted to join, but were unable to because of scheduling conflicts. Please consider calling to thank your senator for protecting our budget against the risk of expanding Medicaid, or to encourage them to reject Medicaid expansion again. Senators are listening, so please share your thoughts. You can find information to contact your senator at http://www.NebraskaLegislature.gov.
