Tonight Little River girls coach Shane Cordell will go for his 500th victory. Congrats to him. He’s a good man and a good coach.

Wichita should have its first 500-game winner next basketball season when Bishop Carroll girls coach Don Racine will likely get it — or get really close. He’s at 479 heading into tonight’s game with visiting Northwest. He has the most wins of any City League coach. Southeast’s Carl Taylor hit 251 - -best for boys — during boys tournament week.

Racine continues to set records in the City League with consistently strong basketball teams. He’s won one 5A title and could have another shot at it this year. Certainly the two other longtime powers in girls basketball, Bishop Miege and St. Thomas Aquinas, have been struggling.
