The Hornets were 5-0 on the day defeating Illini Bluffs 40-35, Morton 60-33, El Paso 71-32, Olympia 58-53, and Heyworth 76-21. The Olympia match was a back and forth affair that came down to the last match won by fall by 1st year wrestler, Seth Ford. The Hornets avenged an earlier defeat this season by beating Heyworth to close out the tournament. Undefeated Varsity wrestlers on the day were Shane Robinson 3-0, Kade Schoch 4-0, Asher Wiegand 3-0, Ryan Fogle 4-0, Travis Smith 5-0 (5 pins), Seth Ford 1-0, and Ethan Moser 1-0. Great job Hornets!!!
