David Nordhues Selected as Head Wrestling Coach
Colby Community College has announced the selection of David Nordhues to head the Trojan wrestling program. Nordhues will replace Steve Lampe who recently announced his retirement.

A native of Greeley, Neb., Nordhues was a four-time state champion. He was a member of the CCC wrestling squad from 2001-03, and served as team captain during the 2002-03 school year.

He continued his career at Fort Hays State University where he was a two-time All American and Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Champion in 2004-05. Following graduation from FHSU, he was hired as an assistant wrestling coach.

“I assisted in all areas of the program,” said Nordhues. “I was involved in recruiting student athletes, monitoring and supporting the academic success, planning and conducting pre- and post-season conditioning programs, evaluations, and fund-raising events.”

Nordhues has been the FHSU assistant wrestling camp director since 2004, and has sponsored his own wrestling camp in Greeley since 2001.

“I am pleased that Coach Nordhues has accepted the job,” said Athletic Director Ryan Sturdy. “He is energetic and has a real passion and desire to win. His experience on the collegiate level, both as a coach and athlete, is a big plus. He is the right guy for the job. I look forward to the continuing success of the wrestling program under his leadership.”

Nordhues will begin his duties immediately at CCC.

A great hire! Mr. Nordhues is an upstanding guy who will put his heart and soul into the Colby CC wrestling program. He is one of the best technicians I have ever been around, and has an unbelievable passion for the sport of wrestling.
