Back Again ...

The winter sports season is about to start and that can only mean one thing ... it’s time for another edition of The Fan. Again, thank you for taking the time to look at and digest the Daily FreemanJournal’s preseason section devoted to the prep basketball and wrestling teams of Hamilton County. Inside you’ll find team photos, preview articles and statistical information to help you be informed on the teams you’ll watch over the next three months.

Webster City senior wrestler Tanner Hild was gracious enough to pose for our cover and inside you’ll find his story one of pain and frustration, and yet he continues to persevere.

A special thank you must be given to Dave Totten and David’s Gallery for allowing me to again use his studio to shoot the cover. Dave not only turned over the use of his studio equipment, but his keen eye and direction helped to get the cover shot that we were hoping for.

As always, the DFJ will be out in force this winter covering these area teams.

Look for stories and plenty of photos in the upcoming months.

It should be a fun ride.

h g u o n E t o N s ’ t a h T ? e t a t S r o F g Qualifyin State medals, champs are what matter to Lynx

By Troy BAnnInG

DFJ Sports Editor

ylan Fielder has been there, done that — three times, to be exact.

Don’t hold it against the Webster City senior if he doesn’t wildly celebrate each victory and milestone. He’s received so many wrestling medals and cardboard brackets over the years that, quite frankly, the mystique has worn off.

Fielder wants just one more medal and one more bracket — the ones that are handed out under the bright lights inside

WCHS returns 278 victories, 4 state qualifiers and 3 NCC gold medalists. So, yeah, expectations are high.

Wells Fargo Arena in front of 15,000 fans in late February. And he’s down to his last shot to earn them.

“The ultimate goal is to be on top of the podium (at the state tournament). My biggest goal is to win it,” Fielder, a threetime state qualifier and two time sixthplace finisher, said as he gears up for his final prep season. “I’ve just got to go out

and beat everyone.”

Fielder isn’t the only Webster City grappler with dreams of jumping into the arms of head coach Ted Larson at season’s end, nor should he be. The truth is, the Lynx head into the 2013-14 stacked, particularly at the upper weights, and anything less than excellence will be cause for disappointment.

“We’re going to be pretty salty,” Larson, who led Webster City to back-to-back North Central Conference championships in 2011 and 2012 before taking five wrestlers to last year’s state tournament, said. “I’m excited to start this year ... I’ve been waiting to get this started.”

Experience and talent aren’t an issue.

Add it all up and WCHS returns 278 victories off last season’s team that finished second to Humboldt in the NCC. Three wrestlers — Fielder and classmates Connor

LYNX

From Page 4 Larson and Jacob Powers — won at least 30 matches — and four others — junior Freddie Seeley, and seniors Alex Oswald, Brandon Patten and Gus Gasca — topped the 20-win threshold last winter. Throw in senior Tanner Hild, who was well on his way to 20 or maybe 30 wins before missing the final half of the season with a back injury, and it’s not hard to figure out why the Lynx consider themselves a force to be reckoned with.

And it’s the vast senior class that is guiding the ship.

“This senior class, we’ve all grown up together and pushed each other really hard,” Hild said. “It’s so deep in our class and it’s really cool to see how close we are. We really have that bond and know that we’ve got each other’s back.”

Connor Larson, Powers and sophomore Gavin Dinsdale are all returning state qualifiers as well.

Connor Larson will step onto the mat for his first match attempting to become just the eighth wrestler in WCHS history to reach 100 career victories. He enters the year 99-25, and yet joining the fraternity means next to nothing to him; not yet anyway.

“I don’t really care about the 100 wins.

It’s not a big deal,” Larson, who will also have the opportunity to become the school’s first-ever four-time NCC champion in January, said. “I want to make it to the (state) finals and win it. That’s the goal. That’s the mindset.”

It won’t take Fielder — 97-32 in his career — long to reach 100 wins either.

Hild (77-30) has a great chance to get there, too.

Ted Larson understands why they shrug their shoulders at talk of triple-digit victory totals. Those are achievements that are fun to have later in life. As for the present, well, it’s tunnel vision time.

“I don’t think they should mean a lot right now because the main goal is climbing the stairs to get to the state tournament and get as high on the podium as we can get. And I’m talking state championships this year.

“These guys need to be thinking state titles. Our kids have beaten kids that have been in the finals, so we’ve got to think that way.”

Fielder and Connor Larson won’t sneak

Dylan Fielder (back) went 39-5 last season en route to a 6th-place medal at state. He enters his senior season with a career record of 97-32.

Team Notes

up anybody. They’re sure to be highly ranked when the initial set is released and, unless something unforeseen happens, they’ll likely spend the season in the spotlight.

Guys like Oswald — a conference champion alongside Connor Larson and Fielder last winter — and NCC runners-up Patten and Gasca cause Ted Larson to sit a little straighter in his chair.

They might not be known on a statewide level, but the coach thinks that may change.

“There are going to be three or four guys in our lineup that nobody is going to see coming, and I like that,” Ted Larson said.

“Judging off how they finished the season last year and what I’ve seen from them this summer at camp, they’re probably the most improved.”

To contend for league dual and tournament titles, WCHS will have to develop balance. The Lynx were stacked at the upper weights last season, too, but inconsistency at the front of the lineup was cause for some stressful situations.

Can WCHS get more decisions and pins

from its lightweights? Can the Lynx avoid giving up bonus points in duals? Team success hangs in the balance.

“If we’re going to contend for championships, we cannot give up the falls,” Ted Larson said. “That’s what beat us last year in the tight duals, and I’m hoping that we’ll be better because we’ve got more experience than we had at this time last year.”

Seeley, as well as sophomores Cole Nokes, Collin Oswald, Gage Sadler and Ryan Ferrari all gained valuable experience last year. Their coach expects their improvement to show up on a nightly basis when they’re in the lineup.

“We’ve got our young guys down there where all but maybe one or two of them are going to be returners,” he said. “We’re not starting from scratch down there.”

WCHS will need to showcase that consistency to contend in the NCC, which is back to being one of the premier leagues in the state. Eligible to return this winter are 12 of last year’s 14 individual NCC champions, as well as 25 state qualifiers and 17 state place winners.

Humboldt and HamptonDumont join Webster City with four. St. Edmond and Clarion-Goldfield both bring back three and Clear Lake has two.

In other words, look out. It’s going to be a dog fight.

“It’s getting to the point where it’s just nuts,” Hild said when asked about the conference. “You get on that podium at conference, you’re going to have a good chance to make that podium at state.”

Ted Larson agreed.

“The conference tournament is going to be fun and very competitive,” he said.

“Those upper weights are going to be loaded.”

here were times when just getting out of bed — the simple act of moving his feet to the ground and lifting his 140-pound body up — was as difficult as any of the farm chores that Tanner Hild accomplished on a daily basis.

Those moments were rock bottom. He didn’t want to talk to anyone. He sure as heck didn’t want to go to school or slowly lumber to wrestling practice to watch his teammates work on their techniques. All he could do was sit idly by — numb to the world as two simple words echoed in his mind over and over again.

Why me?

“It was just bad all the way around,” Hild said. “Not wrestling was probably the worst feeling I’ve ever had.

You sit there and watch all of your friends do well and you hope none of them go through something like this.

You just don’t know how it feels until it actually happens to you and it’s the worst.”

T

anner Hild was a happy, healthy teenager with a budding prep wrestling career when he first felt the twinge in his lower back in the fall of 2013. That twinge turned into an ache; that ache eventually morphed into serious pain ... a pain that still creeps up even today.

But this injury isn’t like a torn knee ligament or broken leg. Those are cut-and-dry injuries; doctors can see them, fix them and then set a timetable for a possible return to competition.

Hild’s injury isn’t so black and white.

His back ailment has taken him to a multitude of chiropractors, doctors, specialists and physical therapists. For months he was told one thing by one professional, only to hear a different diagnosis from someone else.

Even today, more than a year after he first noticed the pain, he doesn’t have a concrete answer or prognosis. And so he does the only thing he can — fight through it.

“The not knowing is definitely the worst,” Hild said. “It’s always there, too.

My parents are always asking me how it’s feeling … right now it’s doing well, but there was one week this past summer where I didn’t know where it came from,

but then it was gone just like that. It’s weird.”

Hild was a valuable member of the Webster City wrestling team as a freshman and sophomore. He won a bronze medal at the North Central Conference meet in 2011, and a year later reached the league finals and qualified for the district meet.

Only an overtime setback stood between him and a trip to the state tournament.

Last season was supposed to be Hild’s season. As a junior 138-pounder, he was considered a favorite not only to win NCC gold, but to finally position himself into the state fold. And with 18 victories in his first 23 outings, there was no reason to think a black cloud would suddenly move in and rain on his parade.

But, deep down, Hild wondered if it was only a matter of time before his back won the battle over his heart and mind.

“It was just always aching,” he said of his back pain that constantly shifted from the left to right side and would at times climb all the way into his neck. “If I would turn one way it would restrict me and I’d feel it really bad. It got to the point where if I sat down on the mat I couldn’t get back up.”

The pain finally got to be too much at the Mendenhall Invite in Ames this past

January when Hild was unable to step onto the mat late in the day. And despite several practice comebacks later in the season, he just couldn’t drag himself back into the circle.

“I’ve known Tanner all of my life and it was tough to watch,” WCHS head wrestling coach Ted Larson said.

“Anybody that knows him knew that some-

thing wasn’t right, and I think not having any answers played a lot on his head because you have that fear of, ‘Do people think I’m really hurt or do people think I have a low pain tolerance,’ and I think that bothered him.”

Larson saw the pain — both physical

Scarier yet for the Lynx is the fact that a handful of the conference heavyweights — Algona, Humboldt, Clear Lake and Hampton-Dumont — will join them at a Class 2A district meet in Webster City in February.

There are sure to be several ranked wrestlers who will have to watch the state tournament from the stands.

“You take a look at our sectional and district; you better believe that if we get through that then we should get to the (state) podium,” Ted Larson said. “That’s just the nature of the beast.”

WCHS competed in 3A a season ago, but dropped down a class this season. It’s a positive in regards to a potential berth in the state dual tournament; 3A teams advance to regional duals based on rankings, while 1A and 2A teams move on based on sectional results.

“It’s not a popularity contest in 2A like it is in 3A,” Fielder said. “This year we can make it happen and make it to the state duals.”

“We get to let the guys determine if we get to the state duals. That part I’m thrilled with,” Ted Larson said. “But 2A is going to be tough. There’s no doubt about it.”

Nope, it won’t be easy. Not in the conference. Not at sectionals or districts, and certainly not at state.

But nothing worthwhile ever is.

HILD

From Page 13 and mental — on a daily basis. He was cautious with his pupil, but when Hild told him he wanted to try to wrestle in the week leading up to the district meet, who was he to tell him no?

But Larson and Hild quickly realized it just wasn’t going to happen.

“I kept telling myself that maybe I could just suck it up and go out there,” Hild said.

“I didn’t want to give up knowing that I didn’t try, so that’s what I did. But by the second day (of practice), I knew.”

S

itting on the sidelines for the last half of his junior season was hell for Hild, but he says quietly — what could I do? And so he did the only thing he could — he flushed it and put all of his focus on this season, his final one in a Lynx uniform.

“After what happened last season, (former WCHS assistant coach) Vic Vanderpool wrote me a really nice letter and it said, ‘You’ve got to let go of this season. Get healthy and get ready for next season.’ So that’s what I did, but letting go of that season was the hardest part.”

After several months of rest and physical

Tanner Hild takes a 77-30 career record into the 2013-14 season.

therapy, Hild was able make it back to the mat for summer camps and preseason tournaments. The results mattered little to Larson, but those were positives, too.

“It was oh-so awesome to see him wrestle this summer at camp and see him do well,” Larson said. “It was really cool to see the look on his face.

“Anytime you deal with that much pain physically, it starts messing with you mentally. Your confidence in yourself ... everything that he has been able to get through this summer and to now has been able to build his confidence.”

Extra stretching and a back brace have helped Hild immensely. But he accepts the fact that wrestling isn’t exactly tiddlywinks.

There will be pain.

There will be frustration.

But this is it — his senior season.

Anything he can do he will do to wrestle.

“I think I’m still the same wrestler I always was, but it’s always the what-if, you know?” Hild said. “And being out last year, it puts a little more pressure on me to work harder and set those goals higher.

(State) is the biggest thing ever and I was really looking forward to that last year.

Now it has to be this year.”

With a career record of 77-30, Hild will make a significant jump up in weight class this season to 152. He and his doctors feel that cutting weight added strain on his body that affected his back injury, so he’s taking the cautious — the sensible — approach this winter.

“Cutting a lot of weight didn’t help,” Hild said. “I wrestled at 160 at (preseason nationals) and went 5-2, which I thought was pretty good, and I spent a lot of time in the weight room (in the fall) just trying to get stronger because it’s going to be a lot more physical (at 152). But I think I’ll be all right.”

Larson knows he’ll have to keep a keen eye on Hild over the next couple of months. He’s sure there will be days when his wrestler will feel the pain and, in many ways, it’s his job to decide if the benefit is greater than the risk.

“Do I trust him to be completely open with me with how he’s feeling? No, I don’t,” Larson admitted. “But I’ll be able to sense it in him because I know him well enough.

“I didn’t see him show any signs of pain this fall and that’s a good thing.”

Pain free. Yes, that’s a good thing indeed.

Hild just hopes it stays that way.

Lynx girls’ basketball: Shhh ... it’s a secret Muhlenbruch expects improvement, but coach stays mum on prospects

By Troy BAnnInG

U

“My absolute hope is that the girls would finish at the top of the conference. That’s my goal for them ...”

DFJ Sports Editor

p-tempo or methodical on offense, full-court press or halfcourt trap, man-to-man or zone defense?

These are just some of the questions — the simple ones — that fans of the Webster City girls’ basketball team have as the Lynx get set to begin the 2013-14 season.

The truth is that very few people know the answers, and that’s exactly how Nicole Muhlenbruch, the Lynx second-year head coach, wants it.

Muhlenbruch is keeping her cards not just close to the vest, but tucked inside the vest under lock and key.

You want to see the strategy Webster City has to try to dig out of last season’s frustrating 2-20 hole? Well, you’re just going to have to show up and take a look.

“I’ve had a year to get to know the kids, so I know their strengths and where they fit into the team,” Muhlenbruch said while declining to offer up much in terms of strategy. “But I think we’re quicker and I think our shooting has come a long way. These girls can shoot.”

WCHS returns three players that saw plenty of varsity action a season ago in juniors Hannah Myers, Mikaleh McCoy and Mikala Harrill. Classmates Alex Dinsdale and Lynne Chalfant also saw the court in 14 games each.

Myers was second on the team in scoring at 5.2 points per game and was the top rebounder at 6.1 caroms per night while working on the wing. McCoy and Harrill both had their moments in the paint and averaged 3.7 and 3.5 points per game, respectively.

Harrill will be forced to sit and watch during the early portion of the schedule after injuring her left knee in practice. The timetable for her return is not known.

Muhlenbruch didn’t want to speak about individual players, but says she does see improvement from the junior class.

“I think they’re more relaxed on the court, yet they’re more intense, if that

—Nicole Muhlenbruch, WCHS head coach

“Everybody is fighting for a place on the team ... we haven’t made a lot of decisions yet as to how we’re going to play the combinations, but everybody is really working hard.”

The coach did say that she thinks as many as 12 players will see the court, which usually translates into a faster-paced style of play. And while she wouldn’t confirm it, there’s reason to believe a number of underclassman could play pivotal roles as well.

WCHS had a successful freshman campaign last winter, and many of the players on that team are fighting for spots in the varsity rotation.

So what does all of this mean? Is the program ready to turn the corner and be competitive night in and night out?

Again, Muhlenbruch doesn’t want to make any predictions. But the days of the Lynx being a punching bag for the rest of the North Central Conference could be over.

“Obviously we want more than two wins,” Muhlenbruch said when asked about her expectations. “My absolute hope is that the girls would finish at the top of the conference. That’s my goal for them — that they give everybody a really good challenge for the top of the conference.”

That won’t be easy against a conference slate that features a bevy of proven teams.

Hampton-Dumont and Fort Dodge St.

Edmond both went 16-2 in league play to share the NCC title a season ago, and Clear Lake finished just a game back.

The Gaels and Lions are again expected to be formidable, while the Bulldogs will attempt to replace do-everything forward Taryn Barz, who led the conference in scoring at 17.2 points a night last winter.

St. Edmond appears to be the front runner with the talented duo of junior Anna Yung and senior Alli Huss. They poured in 14.4 and 13.1 points an outing a year ago.

Clear Lake features its own premier onetwo punch in seniors Logan Anderson (10.7 ppg last season) and Trudy Peterson (10.0).

“I’d say Clear Lake and St. Edmond for sure,” Muhlenbruch said when asked to pick her preseason conference favorites. “I think you can throw Algona and Hampton in there as well.”

Eight of the top 10 scorers in the NCC from a season ago will return, so the Lynx climb from the back of the pack won’t be easy.

But that’s just fine with the coach. It will take hard work, something Muhlenbruch says her girls have no problem doing.

“All of the girls have improved,” she said. “They were in the gym in the summer and they came to open gym in the fall. I think I have a lot of girls that, on any given night, can be the leading scorer or leading rebounder, and the next night it could be someone else. That’s what’s going to be our frustration to other teams.”

There’s no doubt that the expectations have been raised — by Muhlenbruch and by her players. All the Lynx have to do now is go out and show it on the court.

Stay tuned.

Lynx season could hinge on Myers’ right knee WCHS boys hope to blend youth with veterans to make a push in NCC

“The jump shot is still going to be there, it’s just how explosive is he going to be?”

DFJ Sports Editor

y the end of January last season it was quite clear — the question was no longer if, but when Mason Myers took a spot among the elite boys’ basketball players in the North Central Conference.

The then sophomore Webster City shooting guard had shown all the tools — speed in the open court, the ability to drive and get to the basket and one of the silkiest jumpers in the league, just to name a few.

But that was 10 months and one reconstructive knee surgery ago. So it has to be asked: Is Myers not only healthy, but ready to take over the Lynx reigns?

“It’s going to be hard to tell, but we’re going to try to ease him into things,” WCHS head coach Marty McKinney said.

Myers, who averaged a team-high 13.5 points per game in leading the Lynx to a 10-12 record in 2012-13, tore the ACL in his right knee in the spring and underwent surgery to repair the defect prior to the summer.

Myers has practiced with the team in the preseason, but will not play until sometime in early December. Whether he’ll be at full strength when he returns to competition is unknown.

“The jump shot is still going to be there, it’s just how explosive is he going to be?”

McKinney said. “Those are the kinds of things where we’re just going to have to wait and see ... some guys come back from a knee injury better than before, while others it takes a little more time.

“Hopefully after the Christmas break he’ll be back to 100 percent.”

The Lynx will need Myers to be an elite player as they attempt to climb into the top half of the conference — they were sixth last winter — without the services of departed all-conference players Nick Olmstead and Boone Myers. The good news is that, in addition to Mason Myers, McKinney will also have his point guard back in senior Ben Mossman.

Mossman dropped in five points per con-

“We’ve got some good pieces back with Mason and Ben, but we’re a work in progress,” McKinney said. “We’ve got some good young talent coming in too, especially in the sophomore class. It’s going to take them a while to get used to playing varsity basketball, but they really battled and showed us some good things when we went to camp.”

Six-foot-4 sophomore Colt Richardson will take over in the paint. He got his feet wet in six varsity games last season and shot 77 percent from the floor.

“Colt gave us some pretty good minutes at the end of last year,” McKinney said.

“He’s played a lot of basketball, he’s got a

lot of natural talent and he shoots the ball well for a big guy. We’re definitely going to be looking to get him involved in the offense.”

Sophomore twins Alec and Avery Fuhs figure into the Lynx plans in the backcourt.

“Alec and Avery looked really good this summer and they don’t back down,” McKinney said. “They’re both really good shooters and they act like they belong.

They’re not very big, but they battle.”

Junior Logan Yates and senior Doug Stoakes will also be in the mix for minutes, as will senior Trey Tesdahl once he returns to the court. Tesdahl broke a finger on his left hand during the football season and is still in recovery mode.

“This team has got some really good

chemistry,” McKinney said. “Late in the season, if we get healthy and the young guys step up, we could be a tough team.”

Winning in the NCC won’t be easy, as the league appears to have more parity than in recent seasons. Defending champion Iowa Falls-Alden returns the conference’s premier player in senior and future Drake Bulldog Casey Schlatter — a 6-6 forward who averaged 25.7 points per game last season — but the Cadets lost other pieces to graduation.

Clear Lake could be a contender with seniors Spencer Davidson (19.5 ppg last season) and Pete Swenson (12.4). The same could be said for Fort Dodge St. Edmond — when aren’t the Gaels contenders? — and Humboldt.

“It’s a balanced league this year. Big time,” McKinney said. “I don’t see anybody going through with one or even two losses. I think you could see a team lose three or even four games and still win the conference.

“Iowa Falls is the defending champ and it’s theirs until somebody takes it from them. Clear Lake has got a lot of talent ... I like what they do.”

Similar to last season when it lost four of its first five games, WCHS could take some early lumps. But the Lynx also got hot late last season with six wins over the final month and McKinney sees no reason why this year’s group can’t make similar strides.

“I’d like to think that when we get into that crunch time of the season we’re going to have a say in how the conference race goes,” he said. “I think we can compete with anybody once we get things figured out.”
