DHS Wrestlers Continue Success At Turkey Creek Tourney

The Dorchester wrestling team concluded its regular season Thursday with another impressive performance at the Turkey Creek Invitational, hosted this year by DHS. After the dust settled, the Longhorns made a convincing statement that they deserve to be in the state's top 5 Class D wrestling rankings.

DHS captured another first place trophy with a team score of 125.5. Other team totals were: Freeman 108.5, Hastings St. Cecilia 102, Friend 86.5, Meridian 81, and McCool Junction 24.

The Times' staff expects that the Class D state wrestling rankings -- which currently have Friend listed as No. 7 and DHS No. 10 -- will be adjusted accordingly following the lopsided results posted this week.

The tournament saw four DHS wrestlers make it to the championship matches. In the 125 lb. category, Inderlied of DHS pinned Small of St. Cecilia. DHS's Stern, Kahle and Hochstetler earned silver medals. In the 189 lb. division, DHS's Barak pinned St. Cecilia's Suminski.

District competition for DHS will be Feb. 12 and 13 at Sutton High School. We encourage all Longhorn fans to root DHS' grapplers onto state.

  3. The turkey creek meet has fallen on hard times.

    there were only 6 teams and many brackets had only two to three kids in the brackets.

    not like the days of the old t.c. when i wrestled in it

    hopefully they can do something with it to offer more competition for the kids and more excitement for the fans
