Jr Hi Wrestlers Continue to Roll! We went to the South Loup meet at Arnold last Thur. The team continued to do well. We won 11 Matches, and only lost 5. We pinned 10 of our opponents, and only got pinned twice. That’s a good day! There were 12 area teams there including Cozad, Gothenburg and Hershey. All 8 of our wrestlers placed at this meet. They were in 4-man brackets, and all placed 3rd or better! Their places were: 1st - Tucker Myer, Pierce Phelps and Cotter Johnston 2nd - Adi Brewer, Hunter Schaeffer, J P Zuniga and Jaxon Mcentee 3rd - Lilly Sheets We left 2 at home because of grades and an injury. Hopefully we will have our full team next week. We are excited as to how they are doing at this point in our short season. We have 3 meets left: St. Pats, Mullen and Perkins Co. Thanks for your support, and hope to see you there!
