KURT LUHRING
1998-2001

A double-edge sword befell Aplington native Kurt Luhring when he was named the new Head Football Coach of Webster City High School: not only was he literally following in the footsteps of living legend Dick Tighe, but Luhring inherited a proud and traditionally strong program whose players, fans, and patrons expected nothing less than the absolute domination of their opponents. Luhring, a Wartburg alumni, came to Webster City with high hopes after turning around Union-LaPorte City's football program.

Making the Lynx football program his own by changing both offensive and defensive schemes, Luhring's first Webster City squad went 0-9 and only won 3 games in the following two seasons. However, in 2001, Luhring led the Lynx to a 6-3 record before resigning late at the end of the 2001-02 school year to become the new head football coach at Clear Creek-Amana. Also the boys’ head track coach who led several individual and relay teams to State, Luhring had an overall football record at Webster City of 9-27.
