Woonsocket eighth grader Camden Jost, far right, earned fourth place at the Big Dakota Conference wrestling tournament held in Ft. Pierre last Saturday.

On Saturday, Feb. 2, the Wessington Springs/Woonsocket/Wolsey-Wessington wrestling squad competed in the Big Dakota Conference Tournament in Ft. Pierre. This was a huge tournament with 23 teams and tough competition. Many of the top-rated wrestlers in the state took part in this tournament. They only placed four wrestlers in each weight class, so anyone who placed at this tournament should have a good showing for the season. 

The wrestlers saw their next competition on Tuesday, Feb. 5, at a triangular in Miller. Results for that will be in next week’s issue. Their next tournament takes place close to home in Huron on Saturday, Feb. 9, starting at 10 a.m.
