The Warriors have had a busy couple of weeks. First, they traveled to Jackson on February 6th to take on the #1 seeded in section 3a the JCC Huskies. The Warriors did not make it easy for them, but the #1 seed proved to be too much today. While the team came up short in the end, the Warriors did not go down easily. All fought hard and some went the distance. Pushing their matches into three periods were: Dane Hanson - 107, Kaston Clarke - 114, Teague Meyer - 133. Winning their matches in three hard fought periods were: Noah Mathiowetz - 145, Isaiah Wolske - 172, Carson Klein 189, Luke Iverson - 215, and Colby Kesteloot - 285. The final team score was Huskies 41 / Warriors 18.

If performance is consistent, it’s likely those hybrids will perform well next year, too.
