Josh Mlot is the sports editor of semoball.com and the Southeast Missourian. He is a graduate of Miami (Ohio) University and has spent the last eight years covering high school and college sports in Pennsylvania and Mississippi. Missouri is the seventh different state he has called home. If you ask him where he's from, the answer is, "all over the place."

Josh has covered legends like Joe Paterno, Hall of Famers like Brett Favre, future-pros like Matt Adams (when he was just an amateur with local tall tales about his ability to hit the stitches off a baseball) and multiple All-Americans. He has covered undefeated teams and winless teams; budding prospects and total busts.

Now, the land of semoball.

First impression: High school basketball and the Christmas Tournament

Posted Monday, January 4, 2016, at 4:32 PM

Sometimes the holidays can be a hectic time, generally because we get caught up in family obligations, gift-giving and the like. But this year mine was crazy because of my first Southeast Missourian Christmas Tournament.

I got a chance to take in a lot of basketball, which meant a lot of time at the Show Me Center as I covered all 28 games of the tournament. I shared some of my impressions in a recent column: A flood of high school basketball.

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and enjoys a great 2016 ahead.

I was just wondering if you are going to post anything new. It has been almost 3 weeks since the above post which was a repeat of a column. So far I don't call this a blog.
