It was the battle of the Bluejays Thursday, Jan. 21, in Three Lakes, Wisconsin, when the Merrill Bluejay Varsity Wrestlers took on the Three Lakes Varsity Wrestlers, whose mascot is also a Bluejay.
“Ryder (Depies) started us off with a technical fall,” said Coach Brian Suchocki. “Ryder works extremely hard in practice and has great technical skills. He did a great job getting us started.”
“After that Tyler (Leistikow) and Wyatt (Bathke) had exciting pins. Both went after it, pinning their opponents in the first period,” Suchocki said. “The matches were very similar. It was good to see both being aggressive.”
