PIERRE – Pierre Governor Boys Wrestling needed something positive to take into regional tournament action, and something positive happened Tuesday in the team’s final regular-season dual.
Pierre notched a 46-15 victory over Mitchell at the Riggs High Gym, winning 11 of the 14 matches contested.
The Governors (11-3, 6-2 ESD) had pins from Gavin Stotts, Alex Oedekoven and Nate Williams. Chase Carda won by technical fall and Lucas Chamberlin, Rylan Shrake, Tristan Spencer and Blake Judson all won by major decision.
Pierre’s boys will next compete in the 3A regional wrestling tournament in Milbank on Saturday, February 19, then in the state tournament in Sioux Falls February 24-26.
