How Officiating & Perspective Redefined Matt Askegaard PLUS Teams of the Week

This week, Steve Hartman is joined by long-time friend, coach, former official and a pillar of the Minnesota basketball community, Barnesville Trojans Head Boys Coach Matt Askegaard. With a resume that includes head coaching stints for both boys and girls programs—plus years of experience as a college and high school official—Matt brings a unique perspective to the game. We discuss how officiating, and a few books, changed his coaching philosophy, the lessons learned through parenthood, and how his  Trojans are gearing up for a tough Heart O' Lakes conference stretch after their HLWW Invitational title. Plus, Steve breaks down a massive week for the Wolves, the Gophers, and his Teams of the Week in Minnesota high school, NSIC and MIAC action. Listen on Spotify, Apple Podcasts or YouTube. Follow Splash City Basketball Podcast on Instagram, Facebook and Bluesky.
