Evan Bergmann honored one his heroes and received some honor of his own along the way.
Along with Republic senior Cameron Doke, Bergmann received a $1,000 scholarship award in memory of 2014 Nixa graduate Logan Middleton at the 71st Greenwood Blue and Gold Tournament. The Logan Middleton Memorial Fund opened in 2014. Each year, two high school boys basketball players in the Blue and Gold Tournament are honored for displaying outstanding sportsmanship and receive scholarships.
“It’s an honor. I looked up to Logan,” Bergmann said. “He’s a role model to me."
Middleton graduated from Nixa High School in 2014.
