Coach Jared Garrett reports the final dual of the season will be today (Thursday) at 1 p.m.
“After that we will prepare for the Regional Tournament the weekend of February 21-22.
“We are having a great start to a new era of girls wrestling,” Garrett continued. “We have some girls that are excited to compete. I look forward to watching it grow.
“As of right now, I believe we are set up to have two or three State Qualifiers,” Garrett said.
“Dalton Matthews and Brady Rillema were both one match away last year. Senior Colton Turner has come a long way since last season. He has worked hard and is competing well.”
The coach is hoping to get Turner in at 152 pounds.
