The Cardinal wrestling team traveled to Melrose for a quad Tuesday and improved their team record to 14-9 on the season, beating Sauk Centre/Melrose 49-30 and Ortonville 66-10.  They lost to Paynesville 37-24.

The Cardinals were without a few regular starters which handcuffed them a bit against Paynesville, but it also provided a few varsity opportunities for some of our regular JV guys. Nolan Fettig had a great night of wrestling dominating two quality wrestlers from Sauk Centre and Ortonville. He now has 27 wins on the season and has been a great lead off guy for us at 106lbs. Logan Timm at 113 recorded a 5-0 decision over a wrestler that pinned him earlier this season, got a pin against Ortonville, and hung in there really tough against one of Paynesville's best wrestlers falling 11-1.

Senior captain Mason Teaser went 3-0 on the night, recording his 60th career win against Paynesville. He really had to earn that one because he had a solid opponent that was pretty dangerous from the top position. He wrestled very smart and secured a quality win. Blaze Nelson, Kelly Johnson, and Landon Seward all took care of business providing dominant wins and went undefeated on the night as well.

The Cards will round out their regular season on Thursday at home against Sauk Rapids and the #8 AAA state ranked Willmar Cardinals. We will recognize Mason Teaser as our lone senior, all of our wrestling parents, and alumni after the 2nd dual is complete.
