Linn-Mar tops S.C. East for third place in 4A
DES MOINES — Instead of dwelling on what could have been, the Linn-Mar Lions chose to think about what could be Saturday afternoon. Metro basketball fans should be doing the same thing.

The Lions tied a record held by Cedar Rapids Regis with their seventh consecutive state tournament trip and set a record with their seventh straight finish of fourth ...

Don’t tell Metro schools they have no chance
CEDAR RAPIDS — You get this from Marcus Paige. “He’s something else.” And this from Josh Oglesby. “He’s really good. That’s about all you can say.” There’s been more said about Harrison Barnes. A lot more. The Ames superstar is considered the top college recruit in the country and perhaps the best prep boys’ basketball player in Iowa history. The consensus is he could have jumped straight to the NBA next year but decided to play at least one season at North Carolina. Linn-Mar’s Paige and ...
