Dan Gable to speak at WHS Scrimmage Night

Former University of Iowa wrestling coach and Olympic wrestling champion Dan Gable will be the featured speaker at the annual Sports Drink Scrimmage being held at Waukon High School Thursday, August 18. The annual event is being switched to that Thursday from its traditional Friday date due to a scheduling conflict with the Waukon Corn Days event.

Additional changes to the annual scrimmage/membership event for the Allamakee Athletic Booster Club include the featured speaker this year, with wrestling legend Dan Gable speaking at 5 p.m., and a Meet the Team event, which will begin at 5:30 p.m. with introduction of this fall’s Waukon athletic teams. The membership meal begins at 4 p.m., with each team also scheduled to hold intrasquad scrimmages throughout the evening.
