Observations all along the line - Kimball & the Southern Panhandle First

Kimball Wrestlers Get Back At It

The Names Are Johnson, Brinkman, McGinnis, Klosterman & Schindler

The Kimball Longhorns wrestling team will begin its second semester schedule on Saturday, Jan. 8, at the Garden County invite.

"We really challenged our guys coming back from the Christmas break to up their intensity in practice," coach Cory McManigal said. "We are five weeks out from our postseason, so we want to be wrestling our best when we get to conference and districts.

"They responded to our challenge with the best week of practice we have had since the season started which is testament to what our guys want to achieve in the next few weeks"
