Firefighters learn skills at 88th annual Nebraska Fire School

HASTINGS, Neb. (KSNB) – The 88th annual Nebraska Fire School wrapped up on Sunday. Since 1937, the event has been a cornerstone of firefighter education.
Hosted by the Nebraska State Volunteer Firefighter’s Association, the school provides essential training for those who serve their communities.
Around 85% of Nebraska’s firefighters are volunteers, and Grand Island Fire Chief Cory Schmidt said in today’s world, it’s hard to find spare time.
Schmidt respects those who volunteer their time to protect others.
“For a volunteer and the amount of training hours needed to become a safe and effective firefighter, it’s very difficult to balance a personal life, your job, and volunteering, so my hats off to them.“
Over 30 classes are provided at the school, covering a range of topics from fire investigation to leadership skills.

Social media reacts to Nebraska legend Ndamukong Suh’s retirement

A Nebraska legend made a significant announcement on Saturday. Former Husker Ndamukong Suh announced on social media that he is officially retiring from professional football.
In a post exceeding 300 words, Suh laid out his decision, reminiscing about his father’s passing, which had occurred one year prior.
“Before he passed, he gave me one final piece of advice,” Suh said in his post. “It’s time to let football go. You’ve done everything you set out to do. Now it’s time for the next chapter.”
Suh’s been out of NFL play since 2022, last donning a jersey for the Philadelphia Eagles, making eight regular-season appearances with the team. He finished with 10 total tackles and one sack in that stretch.
Suh spent 13 seasons in the NFL after being selected second overall by the Detroit Lions in the 2010 draft. He wasted no time becoming a major force to be reckoned with in the NFL, winning the defensive rookie of the year and becoming a first-team All-Pro.
Suh earned two more first-team All-Pros for the Lions before joining the Miami Dolphins and becoming the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history at the time. He spent three years with the Dolphins before signing with the Los Angeles Rams and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and then closed his career with the Eagles.
Suh appeared in three Super Bowls in his NFL career, one with each of his final three teams. He hoisted the Vince Lombardi Trophy with the Buccaneers in 2020.
Alongside his retirement, Suh also revealed his plans moving forward, announcing he created a podcast called No Free Lunch.
“It’s about real conversations, real strategy, and real education,” Suh said. “Because freedom doesn’t come from fame, it comes from knowledge and how you move.”
At Nebraska, Suh won a slew of awards in his Husker tenure, including in his senior year, becoming a Heisman Finalist and the first defensive player to win the Associated Press College Player of the Year Award.
He led Nebraska in tackles for two straight seasons, racking up 85 in his senior year, the most by a defensive lineman since 1974. Suh also led the Huskers in tackles for loss (24), sacks (12), quarterback hurries (26), and blocked kicks (3) in 2009.
His 24 tackles for loss ranked him second on the Nebraska season list, and his 12 sacks ranked him third in school history. He also holds the school record for career interceptions by a Nebraska lineman, snatching four in his college career.
Suh finished his Husker run with 215 career tackles, ranking him 24th in school history and fourth among defensive linemen. He also tallied 57 career tackles for loss, 1.5 behind the school record holder, Grant Wistrom. He also finished fourth in school history in career sacks, with 24 career sacks, which is tied for fourth in Nebraska history.

Former Nebraska pitcher rising up the minor league ranks

Former Nebraska baseball pitcher Brett Sears was called up to AAA on Friday afternoon, as he made the move to the Gwinnett Stripers. The announcement was made on social media on Friday.
Sears went 3-3 with a 3.65 ERA. He had 34 strikeouts and a. 187 batting average against. The Atlanta Braves selected him in the seventh round of the 2024 MLB draft.
It should be no surprise to Nebraska baseball fans, as they watched Sears put together a dominating career on the mound. All told, he went 11-6 over the course of four seasons, along with 155 strikeouts in 171 innings pitched. He sported a 3.84 ERA in total and was dominant for Nebraska on several occasions.
Now, it appears he is playing at a high level in the minor leagues. It will be interesting to see how quickly he makes it to the pros, as he continues to rise up the minor league ranks. This certainly speaks to the Huskers’ recent success at the minor league level.
