COLUMBIA BASIN – District wrestling competitions were held across the state last Friday and Saturday, with local teams looking to advance their wrestlers to this weekend’s regional competitions.
QUINCY Nearly 30 eastern Washington teams gathered at Saturday’s Bring Home Da Beef girls wrestling tournament in Quincy, closing out the regular season as district tournaments rapidly approach.
“Getting into January with all the tournaments, it’s just a grind,” Quincy Head Coach Mark Kondo said. “I think everybody was pretty relieved to get it done, and now we’re focusing on the postseason, which was our goal from the beginning of the year; to get better each day and be peaking at postseason time.”
