🕊️It is with profound sadness that Broken Bow Schools must announce the passing of Korey Nnokam, a member of Broken Bow High School's Class of 2025. Korey tragically lost his life in an automobile accident on Friday, May 9th. Korey Nnokam was a beloved student-athlete at BBHS. His spirit and presence will be deeply missed but never forgotten. Our deepest and most sincere sympathy goes out to his family, friends, and to our entire Savage Family during this difficult time. 🕯️A candlelight vigil service will be held at Memorial Stadium on Sunday, May 11th, beginning at 7:00 PM, to celebrate Korey’s life and legacy. Those attending the vigil may want to bring folding chairs and blankets with them to the stadium. Please keep Korey's loved ones in your thoughts and prayers as we mourn the loss of a truly special soul. Grief counselors will be available in the BBHS Library on Monday when school resumes for anyone struggling with grief over this tragic loss.

🏋️Offseason training is going strong in advance of spring football practice, which begins next Monday. One of the traditions under Coach Lang is that any player who successfully completes a full bench press set with the one hundred pound dumbbells gets to sign their name on the dumbbells. This morning, three new signatures were added to the weights. Josh McDaniel, Kade Pratt and Sonny Freeman each completed the full set and inked their names in Savage legend. Congratulations Savages! Keep up the great work! #SavageStrong
