Wrestlers compete at Plainview meet

PLAINVIEW — The Osmond High School wrestling team competed at the Plainview Invite on Saturday, Jan. 30. The Tigers scored 13 points and finished in 15th place out of the 17 teams competing. Crofton-Bloomfield was the team champion, followed by Plainview and Wayne.

Leading the way for the Tigers was Dominic True, who finished in third place in the 120-lb. weight bracket.

“This was a rough tournament for us this weekend,” commented Coach Larry McKenna. “We were down to two wrestlers because of injuries and illness and only scored 13 points, which is our lowest of the season. Dominic did wrestle well though, winning three matches and finishing third at 120 lbs. With the three wins, Dominic evens his season record at 15 wins and 15 losses. Also wrestling for Osmond but not placing was Bodie True at 152 lbs. Bodie ends the regular season with a record of 16-12.

“Next week we should get most of our wrestlers back for the subdistrict meet in Pleasanton on Saturday, Feb. 7. The top four in each weight class will advance to the district meet the following week,” McKenna said.

Dominic True won by pin over Carter Olson of QCNE, lost by pin to Luke Polivka of East Butler, lost by pin to Scout Ashburn of Plainview, won by pin over Tavious Pinkelman of HCC, won by 8-1 decision over Ladanian Free of Winnebago
