PELLA â A lot of talented wrestlers were in the building for Pellaâs annual Bill Van Horn Invitational. The Dutch would come away with third place with two champions while Oskaloosa finished sixth with a runner-up. Norwalk would take the team title with seven individual champs.
Pella had a great opening round with 10 of their wrestlers advancing to the semifinals. There they would run into some tough competition as only four made it to the finals.
Damion Clark claimed Pellaâs first title at 113 pounds. He picked up a 16-2 major decision in the quarterfinals before getting a second period fall over No. 6 (1A) Connor Golston of Moravia in the semifinals.
