Famous Names Graced City Prep Picture An fchool continues to expand, so does its athletic program. Today, high schools in the Capital City compete in various sports activities Lincoln High, Lincoln Northeast, Lincoln Southeast, Pius and University High. With (he population climbing and its boundaries expanding, other high schools seem certain to spring up. But will the Capital ity ever boast Kl prep schools? In addition to the present schools, there used to be Temple, Teachers, Cathedral, University Place, College Jackson, Havelock, Aggie High. Wesleyan Prep and Hayward Military Academy.

Many were outside the city limits but later annexed and absorbed into the present schools. Some just faded away. All Contrlbuttd But all contributed something to state-wide reputation as kmg-pin of prep athletics. No other city in the state has been home base for so many championship teams. The future of high school athletics in Lincoln looks both bright and bleak Facilities rate both good and bad.

There are only two football stadiums one being Lincoln Oval, built Without tax funds in 1923 With 4 businessmen loaning: much of the money necessary for the field. The Oval was debt free by 1929.

Prior to Its construction coln High played home games I at junior high schools where the facilities were insufficient in every re.spcct. Northeast played on its auditorium stage before its gym was built. Southeast a from the start, hut College View was another of the Junior high teams. College View, now a part of Southeast, had a football field of sorts.

Cathedral had no football field and for a gym used tiny CYO hall. Uni formerly used the but now has its own modern gym. From facilities that could be described as mediocre at best. Capital City schools have achieved remarkable records. The University of Nebraska plays a major part in the Capital City and high sports picture.

It is Jic site of the state tournaments in both basketball and track, affairs that annually draw banner crowds. Share A large share of state championship trophies reside at one school Lincoln High, an institution whose athletes and teams have earned more state titles than any other.
