PIERRE WRESTLERS TIE BRANDON VALLEY – AGAIN – BUT LOSE ON CRITERIA
BRANDON, S.D. – The last time the Pierre Governor wrestlers faced off against Brandon Valley in a dual, they ended in a 36-36 deadlock, but the Governors won the dual based on criteria and were crowned as the 2023 State Dual Team Champions. Thursday night (Jan. 25, 2023) in Brandon the two teams met again and the end result was the same, a 36-36 tie. But, this time around it was the Lynx who won the dual based on criteria as Brandon Valley won eight matches while Pierre claimed six.
The Govs had their chances but lost some close matches, plus some others where they were unable to hold leads in certain spots, as they suffered their first loss in ESD competition this season and dropped to 7-2 overall.
Pierre did claim the maximum of six points in all six of their victories with five pins and a win by forfeit. Pins came from EJ Boutchee at 215, Alex Oedekoven at 132, Tristan Spencer at 138, Jaxon Ducheneaux at 157 and Lucas Chamberlin at 165.
Meanwhile six girls matches were also wrestled with Pierre wrestlers winning four of them as they outscored Brandon Valley 17-12. Lexie Hillmer registered the only pin at 126 pounds while major decisions were claimed by Shaylee Speck at 100 pounds and Kezrey Benning at 132.
Pierre travels to Huron for another ESD dual tonight. Then the girls head to a tournament in Aberdeen on Saturday while the boys will be off to the Brookings Invitational.
