IMPERIAL, Neb. — Chase County captured a 7-6 win over the visiting Ogallala Indians to cap the Longhorns’ 4-5 football season Friday evening.

The Longhorns were oh-so-close to a winning season if not for their 14-12 defeat against Sidney one week earlier.

No other details were obtained.

Southern Valley finished its 2-7 season with a 41-0 home loss against the Minden Whippets.

The Decatur Community (Kan.) Red Devils are 3-5 and Rawlins County (Kan.) Buffaloes sit at 1-7 following Friday night losses.
