Triangular and two tournaments

     The past two weeks have been busy for the Golden Eagles. On the 11th they made a trip to Yankton for a triangular against the Bucks and the Lynx from Brandon Valley. We started off against Yankton defeating them 46-25. Aberdeen earned pins from Brenden Salfrank, Garrett Mitzel, Will Jarrott, Alex Hopfinger and Kaden Johnson. Ethan Allen, wrestling at 120, also made his season debut recovering from an injury he received before the first meet of the year. His debut was successful earning a first period fall. Also receiving wins were Logan Beadle with a Major decision and Brock Baker with a forfeit.
     The next dual against Brandon Valley was a different story. The Lynx took it to us handing us a 15-53 defeat. Salfank, Baker and Hopfinger were our only wins. 2 pins and a major decision. The following day the Eagles attended the 12 team Harrisburg Invite. Still shorthanded we finished in 3rd place behind Harrisburg and Madison. Aberdeen had 3 champions; Brenden Salfrank, Will Jarrott and Kaden Johnson. Runner up finish for Brock Martin, 3rd place for Brock Baker, 4th place finish for Alex Hopfinger, Garrett Mitzel and Logan Beadle and a 6th place for Ethan Allen.
     The following weekend was the River City Rumble in Chamberlain. Again shorthanded, we finished in 4th place trailing Mitchell, Chamberlain and Huron. We had two champions, Brenden Salfrank and Will Jarrott, two runner up finishes as well with Alex Hopfinger and Kaden Johnson. Finishing in 3rd place were Brock Martin, Ethan Allen and Brock Baker. Rounding out the placers was Garrett Mitzel in 4th.
     This week the team has a home triangular Thursday night against Harrisburg and Watertown, It's hopeful that Dillon Stoebner will be back in the lineup but Jacob Moore is still out. His return is not known yet. The following Saturday is the Lee Wolf tourney at Golden Eagles Arena. There is also a wrestling reunion over the weekend, A social Friday night at The Wakeside Bar and Grill and another gathering Saturday after the tournament at the AmericInn. Hope to see you all there.


Go Eagles!
