"Youth sports in Omaha and across the country is in desperate need of a facelift. Large egos and even larger team budgets have eroded many youth programs, that should be focused on "what's best for the kids". My desire is to bring youth sports back to our youth.  My efforts will be to build an athletic program focused on hard work, dedication and integrity."
