| Article: | Historically Speaking... Westby High School Football Adapted from a 1940 American Legion pamphlet Due to the untiring efforts of Legionnaires Goettel, Nestingen and Bergtold, and of coach Wandschneider, eleven-man football received its start in our local high school. During the fine spring days of 1938, Coach “Bill” Wandschneider could be seen drilling a bunch of high school boys in the fundamentals of football, a sport they had never even seen played before. By fall of the same year an eight game schedule had been drawn up and twenty-two complete new football uniforms were ready to be checked out to the players. |
