Glen Snodgrass

A dream come true! #champions #family

We are going to miss watching him play! He has always LOVED this game! Love you Dalton! 🏈🏈

I had a great time speaking to 150 awesome kids and teachers/administrators at the Region 1 Student #Leadership Conference at York College today. We spent about an hour talking about character-based leadership and the importance of being a servant leader.

This Friday night at half-time of the York varsity football game versus Norris, we will be inducting #44 Alex Kowalski from the class of 2017 into the York Football Hall of Fame! If you’re ever curious how he got his nickname “The Lawnmower”, just take a look at these two videos below. One is him running the ball, and one is him as a lead blocker!

Getting in a little extra reading during fall break! 4 Excellent #Books! Fiction, history, health, and speculative non fiction. I would recommend all 4. I need to add a leadership book soon!

RIP G.O.A.T. #BearDown

Special Forces! ☠️☠️🏈☠️☠️ #YorkDukes

The start of your typical 23.5 hour workday. The life of a coach! Love it! #BeatScottsbluff #YorkDukes

This Friday, September 4 at halftime of the York football game versus Beatrice will be the sixth annual induction of the York football Hall of Fame. This year we will induct three individuals and the undefeated 1969 team. Last, but not least we will honor a player that exemplified the hard-nosed, physical, blue collar football that we play in York! Also known as “THE LAWNMOWER”! Alex Kowalski Alex Kowalski played for the Dukes under head coach, Glen Snodgrass, from 2013 through 2016 and left his mark on the program through his dedication, toughness, and leadership. A captain his senior year, Alex helped lead the Dukes to the playoffs every year of his high school career. Alex earned All-State Honorable Mention honors as both a junior and senior, despite playing in only four games his senior season, and was also selected to participate in the Shrine Bowl. Alex credits much of his success to the work he put in during the weight room and conditioning every summer. The countless hours of summer work paid off each fall and helped Alex become the best football player he could be.Alex had several games stand out among his favorite memories. An unforgettable one was his senior year when York defeated No. 3-ranked McCook at home, propelling the Dukes into the top three in Class B. ALEX WAS UNABLE TO ATTEND TONIGHT CEREMONY AND WILL BE FORMALLY RECOGNIZED AT A HOME GAME LATER THIS SEASON. – at York, NE

This Friday, September 4 at halftime the York football game versus Beatrice will be the sixth annual induction of the York football Hall of Fame. This year we will induct three individuals and the undefeated 1969 team. Derick McKenzie A three-year starter for the York Dukes, Derek McKenzie established himself as one of the most dynamic and versatile athletes to wear the Duke uniform. Playing under Head Coaches Randy Cordes and Jerry Dunn, he impacted every facet of the game as he excelled as a wide receiver, cornerback, punt returner, and kickoff returner. During his junior and senior seasons, Derek caught 29 passes for 938 receiving yards, averaging more than 32 yards per reception. As a senior, he led the state with 12 touchdown receptions, showcasing his ability to make explosive, game-changing plays. His outstanding career earned him a three-time All-District selection and Nebraska All-State during both his junior and senior seasons. Derek considers his team's success to be among the most rewarding moments of his football career. The Dukes captured a District Championship and advanced to the State Quarterfinals. An unforgettable moment for him came in a playoff battle against McCook, when York pushed one of the state's top teams into overtime.

It is Wooden Wednesday in York #Leadership 101! “Success is his peace of mind, which is a direct result of self satisfaction in knowing you made the effort to be the best of which you were capable.” -John Wooden youtu.be/0MM-psvqiG8?si=VhmY…

This Friday, September 4 at halftime of the York football game versus Beatrice will be the sixth annual induction of the York football Hall of Fame. This year we will induct three individuals and the undefeated 1969 team. Today we will highlight one of the greatest athletes in the history of York high school. A world class runner and a multi sport Letterman for the Cornhuskers after high school. Bill Moomey Bill Moomey, a member of York High School’s Class of 1944, was one of the finest all-around athletes in York history, but it was his football ability and extraordinary speed that made him stand out. As a halfback for the York Dukes during the 1943 season, Moomey was an all-state-caliber player who was a formidable presence in the backfield. Following high school and service in the Navy during World War II, Moomey returned home and continued his athletic career at the University of Nebraska, where he lettered in both football and track. Whether carrying the football or competing on the track, Moomey demonstrated the rare combination of speed, athleticism and competitive determination that made him one of Nebraska’s outstanding athletes of his generation. Moomey’s impact on York athletics was ultimately recognized on an even greater scale. In 1973, he was selected as York High School’s “Athlete of the Century,” and in 2000, he was inducted into the Nebraska Sports Hall of Fame. Congratulations Bill Moomey, on your posthumous (Paas-chuh-muhs) induction into the York Duke Football Hall of Fame. – at York, NE

This Friday, September 4 at halftime the York football game versus Beatrice will be the sixth annual induction of the York football Hall of Fame. This year we will induct three individuals and the undefeated 1969 team. All members, and coaches from this great team are encouraged to attend and gather at halftime to be honored.  1969 Team Led by an outstanding defense and a potent offense, the 1969 York High Dukes football team finished the first undefeated and untied season since 1941. York completed the year with a 9-0 record, capturing the East Central 10 Conference crown and ranked #2 among the state’s Class B football teams. The Duke defense, considered one of the best in the state, held five of their nine opponents scoreless and allowed only 26 points to be scored by the remaining four. In his second year at the helm of the Dukes, Chuck Doepke (Dep-Key) introduced the “I” formation which produced 147 total points for the Dukes during the 1969 campaign. Seven members of the team; Dave Michel, Dave Forbes, Greg Holoch, Steve Atwood, Joe Davis, Gary Daake (DAy-Key) and Bruce Tracy, were named to All-Conference as a result of their outstanding season. In addition, Dave Forbes was picked as a member of the Nebraska All-State team.

Tonight Allison and I begin our 17th and final season of watching our boys play #football. The people we’ve met, the miles we’ve traveled, and the experiences we’ve created in those years have been absolutely incredible! Most importantly the lessons Garrett and Dalton have learned from this great game have helped turn them into men! We are so proud of Dalton for staying loyal and dedicated to his team this season and can’t wait to watch him finish off his career in Kearney. ☠️☠️🏈🏈☠️☠️❤️❤️

My current #Books. All three books are very good! Nuclear war by @AnnieJacobsen is extremely scary non fiction book about the reality of nuclear war. Guns up is one of the best military books I have read which follows a Marine Johnnie Clark through his incredible #Vietnam experience. Before they are Hanged is book two in a three books series very similar to Game of Thrones. All three are highly recommended.
