“We competed at the Sutton Duals Tournament on Tuesday, December 17,” began Wood River head boys wrestling coach Darin Waddington. “We placed second out of six teams, going 4-1. “Our only loss was our final dual against Class D ranked Thayer Central by three points. We led the whole dual but we let some matches go that we should have been able to win and in a tight dual you just can’t make mistakes like that. Being open at a weight really hurt us, too, and would have made all the difference. That’s a 12 point swing in the big scope of things.”
