World-Herald: Davis balances books, basketball, international competition
March 11, 2010
Nick Davis’ mix of contributions to the Omaha Creighton Prep basketball team seems symbolic of his everyday life.
The kid does a little of everything.
If he isn’t scoring, he’s rebounding, blocking shots, deflecting passes or assisting on baskets for the defending Class A state champions, says their coach, Josh Luedtke.
“He shows up in the stat sheet somewhere,’’ Luedtke said.
If he isn’t playing basketball, the Prep senior likely is tending to his 4.0 grade average, taking advanced placement classes or captaining the Science Bowl team. MIT has already accepted him and Davis is pretty sure he will study and play basketball at the prestigious Boston-area university.
And when Creighton Prep takes the Devaney Center floor today against Omaha Bryan, Davis will be the only player in the first-round state playoff game with national and international experience in team handball.
