Junior high wrestlers perform in Plainview
The Osmond J.H. wrestlers competed at the Plainview tournament on Thursday, Nov. 19. The Tigers scored 45 points and finished in 9th place out of the 18 teams competing. Wayne was the team champion followed by Battle Creek, O’Neill, and Norfolk Catholic. The Tigers had one individual champion with Nate Christensen placing first in the 93 lb bracket.
This was a big tournament but the kids all wrestled well. We had five out of the six kids place in the top four in their weight brackets. Nate went undefeated and placed first at 93 lbs. Alexis and Dalton both finished 3rd in their brackets while Mason and Johnson placed 4th in their brackets. Austin wrestled well winning a match but did not place. This is always a tough tournament with a lot of bigger schools. The kids really had to wrestle well in order to place at this tournament.
