HUNTERTOWN â Less suspense, more pictures.
Garrettâs wrestlers defended their sectional title by a point and a half over host Carroll last week, and were back to try for a second straight regional crown.
This time, the Railroaders put six wrestlers in championship matches and three more in consolations, and repeated as regional winners with 137 points, leaving the host Chargers behind with 103. Then came Leo at 98 ½ and Columbia City at 85.
That means two color team photos outside the Garrett gym, an honor reserved for teams that win regional championships.
âThey never hung up our last one,â Garrett coach Nick Kraus said. âOur athletic director, Chris DePew, told me last week, âGo out and win another one so we can put up two pictures at the same time.â Definitely some motivation to get back-to-back pictures on the school wall.â
