EUSTIS, Nebraska – Eustis-Farnam High School will field a young wrestling team this winter. The Knights have just one senior on the squad and just 10 team members. But head coach Travis Metzler does have a trio
of returning letter winners in sophomore Aaron Hueftle, junior William Jack and senior Shane Robbins. Hueftle qualified for the Class D state meet last season at 105 pounds and he brought home a sixth-place medal in his first year of high school competition. Hueftle is expected to compete at 113 pounds this season in the new weight classifications. Jack is penciled in at 160
pounds, and Robbins is expected to wrestle at 220 pounds. Seven of the 10 E-F matmen are either freshmen or sophomores. The Knights are members of the Fort Kearney Conference. Eustis-Farman will enter the Class D-3 District meet at Elm Creek Feb. 10-11 along with Gazette area teams Arapahoe and Cambridge.

IMPERIAL, Nebraska – The Chase County High School wrestling team will focus on individual accomplishments this season. Head coach Matt Vlasin has just six team members and no seniors on the roster. There are also no returning letter winners for the Longhorns this season. "We have a very small, young team," Vlasin said. "We have four freshmen, one sophomore and one junior, but we have some wrestlers with a lot of mat time and experience for their ages. We many not be bringing home too many team titles, but I look for this group of kids to do well as individuals." Coach Vlasin looks for freshmen Andrew Schilke (106 pounds) and Jake Lueth (138) to be top competitors for the Longhorns. Chase County will be competing in the Class C-4 District meet at Kearney Catholic High School Feb. 10-11.
