The 1940 Juneau High School football team again estab- lished itself as one of the finest ever turned out in Jun- near. The team not only won the Four C conference champion- ship, but extended its long string of consecutive home vic- tories to 37. This marks the nineth consecutive season that Juneau emerged undefeated on its home field. Coach Hoffmann’s gridders used the unorthodox overbal- anced formation to fine advantage. The team was light but displaying the 01 fight in every game, they were able to conquer teams that not only outweighed the locals but also possessed greater reserve strength. Players who distinguished themselves by their brilliant playing throughout the season were Cap’t W. Meckelberg, R. Theison, B. Thelson, J. Hartzheim, and R. Reibel, in the backfield, and G. Nebl, A. Y oehrman, G. Hickey, R. Ihde, W. Keel, L. Nehls, A. Hebenstreit, G. Korth, W. Gruba, and W. Lehner in the line. Juneau’s football record under the tutelage of Coach Hoffmann during the past 13 years is as follows: Complete 13 year record. Four C record since 1935.
