Gering High School fell just short earlier this week to Scottsbluff in an exciting contest. The leader for Gering, Makenzie Todd Makenzie Todd 5'10" | PG/SG Gering | 2025 NE , helped her team in this specific event with 10 points. Todd is someone that possesses that mixture of size and skill that all coaches love to see. She is 5’10, she has a guard skill set and she understands how to play the game the right way. This loss moved Gering to .500 with a 5-5 record so far. If they lock in and play some of their best ball of the season, they could easily end over .500 moving into the Post Season. They just need to make that end of the season push and Todd needs to keep doing what she has been. If that happens, who knows how they might end things this Winter.

Makenzie Todd Makenzie Todd 5'10" | PG/SG Gering | 2025 NE and Gering High School will challenge Chardon in an early season exhibition on Saturday and I’m excited to see how everyone looks. Todd is a 5’10 PG/SG, that is committed to North Platte CC to continue on her basketball journey following this winter so I’m excited to see what she can string together. From the outside look of it, Todd is a mismatch with her mixture of size, skill, and coordination. She does a lot of things on the floor that seem effortless and that happens because of her work in the off-seasons. Todd has also been a multiple sport athlete all of her high school career so when you add those things to the mix, you start to see the promise and begin to wonder how far she could really take things. I’m excited to see how she does this weekend to start her final go-around on the high school floor.
