Wrestling career winding down for Kimball's Shawn Nagel

The wrestling career for Kimball's most decorated wrestler ever is winding down, and what a career it has been. It all started back in Federation wrestling when Shawn was just a little bitty guy, and although he never got real big in stature, his accomplishments certainly did! Shawn almost re-wrote the record books at Kimball High including three state championships before accepting a scholarship to wrestle at a Division One level for the University of Nebraska where he was a four year varsity wrestler for the Corn Huskers. This feat alone is something no other Kimball High grad can match, at least to my knowledge. There have been others who performed at a varsity level in some sport at a Division One level, but not in a starting varsity role for four consecutive years. We salute you, Mr. Nagel....
