UNO soccer coach Jason Mims will be spending lots of time this week at the boys state tournament.

Mims said he’s always looking for players, but he also just enjoys the atmosphere at Creighton’s Morrison Stadium. There’s extra intensity when if you lose, you go home, he said.

“It’s nice to see the competitive environment like that,” he said. “It’s a little bit different from the regular season.”

Mims said recruiting has gone well this season. He already had five players enroll in January.

A list of recruits will be released later this week.
