For the second straight season the Wadena-Deer Creek wrestling team will bring everybody on their roster back.  Head Coach Brad Wollum, now in his third season, is assisted by Ben Henle and Brian Bauch.  Wollum sees West Central Area/Ashby/Brandon-Evansville and Border West as the top team sin Section 6A.

Returners include seniors Madelyn Gallant (4th in State), Koby Endres (State Qualifier) and Brandon Wheeler, juniors Grant Seelhammer, Eli Benning and Seth Stroeing, sophomores Matthew Wegscheid and Mason Brauch (State Qualifier), freshmen James Seelhammer, Jaydyn Kenney and Ettore Pinnella, and eighth-graders Dayton Putnam, Hudson Schultz, Gage Mallak, Logan Seelhammer and Kylan Benning.

“For the past two seasons, we haven’t lost a senior due to graduation,” noted Coach Wollum.  “With this once young team morphing into bigger roles, be on the lookout for everyone on the team to have a standout year!  They’ve been inching ever closer to turning the tides of WDC wrestling and this season could be one where the momentum might start to change.”
