Longhorns avenge Hershey loss to advance in subs

    Chris Bartels’ Chase County Longhorns got some sweet revenge Tuesday night with a 65-55 win over the Hershey Panthers in the first round of the C1-11 subdistricts in North Platte.

In the semi-finals at the C-4 district meet, it took just 51 seconds of the second period for Eli Hinojosa to secure this hold and pin Nicholas Coley of Mitchell. Hinojosa went on to win the championship and keep his perfect season intact. (Johnson Publications photo)
