Owatonna senior wrestler Abe Stockwell, in addition to the team bench, was pumped after pinning his opponent to pull the Huskies into a 32-32 tie with Watertown-Mayer Friday night. After several minutes however, the mode among the Huskies dipped as the Royals earned the win on criteria. It took a discussion at the scorer s table to determine the winner.
Each team won seven matches. Each team had three pins. Watertown-Mayer had a tech fall win and OHS did not, giving the Royals the win and leaving the Huskies with a split on the night. Owatonna beat Mankato West 70-12 to open the night s tri.
As the state high school winter sports season begins to grind into action, a number of proven local wrestlers find themselves ranked about the state s elite. Time will tell if they get a full state meet opportunity to challenge the rest for a spot on the medal stand. Six Owatonna wrestlers are in the top ten of the latest
Guillotine rankings. The team is rated No. 6AAA. Medford boasts six individually ranked grapplers as well. However, the team is only among the Lean and Mean category. NRHEG has one ranked wrestler.
