Tuesday night Norton hosted Hays High and Kearney, NE in a double dual.

Norton 67 Hays 9

Kearney 57 Hays 21

Norton 30 Kearney 27

The Norton-Kearney dual was EXCELLENT. Each team won seven matches; Norton lost two by fall but the other five of their losses were by decision--keeping points off the team score. Each team lost matches that could have gone either way.

Norton's wins were at 103 (Kearney forfeited though they had a 103 wrestler but who wrestled JV), 112, 119, 130, 135, 152, & 275.

Norton's losses were by fall at 140 & 160 and by decision at 125, 145, 171, 189 and 215.

Kearney is currently ranked in Nebraska by their State Coaches Association (NSWCA) as the #2 tournament and #3 dual team in Class A (the big schools, equivalent to our 6A). They have the following wrestlers ranked in the top 6 of their weight classes: 112, 119, 125, 130, 135, 145,160, 215, and 275.

A great dual, great crowd, and a great night of wrestling with almost 40 JV matches also being wrestled.
