My Bachelor Degree Grad is done and headed home! He is coming home w a really great new career in Project Management for an Omaha based company, Bachelors in Economics, a basketball Conference Championship ring and several title champs! 🙌🏼🫶🏼🏀📚💍🏆🥇
He got 4 years of free college, broke many personal and team basketball records, won two championship titles, while being a significant contributor to his team’s success in all 4 seasons and met great lifelong friends along the way.

I appreciate everyone that made a positive impact to my son’s life during his college journey.

I can’t believe the time has come to an end. He wishes rules would allow to keep going because he hasn’t even hit his peak yet…God has other plans🙏🏼…who knows, maybe you’ll be seeing him on some pro-am golf course greens in the future. ⛳️
Extremely proud mom!!

I want to thank @NMUMensBBALL, Coach @MattMajkrzak, and @Keil_ganz for the opportunity my Senior year to be a part of NMU and part of another championship season. I’m forever grateful for the experience. With one year of D1 eligibility remaining (per NCAA ruling), I am entering the transfer portal as a Graduate transfer, currently open to all D1 opportunities, while pursuing my MBA.
