Highland earned at least a share of the Southeast Iowa Conference title with a 38-11 win over Wapello. The 18th straight victory for Highland sets up a potential outright crown if they beat Winfield Mt. Union next Tuesday. Seniors Scott Frank, Darrell Steele, Glenn Weimer, and Jeff Bartmann led the Huskies, with Frank 3-2 at 138, Steele 8-0 at 167, Bartmann 6-6 at 145, and Weimer 11-0 at heavyweight. Coles also contributed, and Highland remained unbeaten. The team had hoped to compete in the conference meet at Wapello Saturday, weather permitting.
