After 15 years at Nebraska-Kearney, Damon Day was out of coaching,
Five years later, the self-proclaimed washed-up Division II baseball coach was miles about from half of his family.
After Saturdayโs championship I asked his wife if it was worth it.

Omaha Skutt found its back against the wall entering the bottom of the seventh, but it found a way to walk off Elkhorn North and win a state title. https://t.co/vDBaLW0qPy
BIG GAME CHAIN = @BubbaDay2027
Day helped Omaha Skutt Catholic on the mound and at the plate in clutch time of the Class B state championship holding Elkhorn North scoreless in the top of the 8th inning
Day drove in the winning run on a walk-off single in the bottom of the same inning to send the SkyHawks home as champions.
