Do you know a star athlete from Free State High School that lives on your street?

Have you been helped through the checkout line at your grocery store by a current member of a Eudora High varsity team?

How about pass by your old ball coach from Tonganoxie High on Massachusetts Street on a Saturday evening?

How’s that former Lawrence High product faring at KU?

Whether we realize it or not, high school sports are a part of this community – and Midco Sports Network is ready to gearing up to report on just how deep the passion goes on our new show, Kansas Preps+.

That’s right, big changes are coming to MidcoSN Kansas. One week from today, Kansas Preps+ will introduce you to someone – or something – that has a connection to our Northeast Kansas high school community. Kansa Preps+ is a thirty-minute show that will debut fresh episodes at 6 PM every other Wednesday. I’ll be joined on-air by Reporter Taryn Tempel, too.

A long time in the making, I’m looking forward to producing and telling the long-game stories – the stories of the athletes, coaches and family members that might live in your neighborhood.

So, if you’ve ever had a run-in like the ones above and wanted to know the story behind your favorite local heroes – Kansas Preps+ is the show to watch Wednesday nights. Here’s to a new challenge and a new way of getting to know the superstars living next door.
