Packerland wrestling title on the line on U 102.1

The Packerland Conference crown for wrestling is on the line Thursday night as Southern Door hosts county rival Sturgeon Bay/Sevastopol, Peshtigo, and Oconto for a quadrangular meet.

 

Heading into Thursday's action, Oconto and Southern Door have each already beaten Kewaunee this season, while Sturgeon Bay/Sevastopol and Peshtigo have yet to wrestle in a conference dual.

 

Last weekend, the Clippineers took 11th out of the 18 teams at the Cutler Classic despite battling low numbers, injuries, and sickness. All of its wrestlers placed, but Spencer Madsen was the top finisher for the team as he hit the podium in third place at 126 pounds at the Cutler Classic.

 

The Eagles competed in two different tournaments with the girls at Muskego, despite only having three wrestlers, placing 10th out of 33 teams.  At New London, the Eagles finished 3rd out of 18 teams.  Head coach Jerry Englebert says they are showing steady improvement and wrestling with more urgency and confidence.  There's room for improvement, but the growth in the last few weeks has been very fun to be a part of.

The Bulldogs won its own 11-team tournament with Reese Yunke (138), Ethan Brissette (145), Kyle Rupert (182), and Connor Thomas (220) winning their brackets.

 

The Blue Devils took sixth in the Valders Vikings Scramble with Dominic Caylor (160 pounds) winning his weight class while two others took fifth. 

 

Weather permitting, Tim Kowols and Lucas Stephenson will have the action on U 102.1 beginning at 4:30 p.m with the pre-dual show followed by duals at 5 p.m., 6:30 p.m., and 8 p.m. tentatively.
