For the Lady Badgers, Kylie Calderone and Aubrey Graves both went 4-0 and dominated their weight classes by pinning all of their opponents and taking home the gold. There were 11 schools represented for lady wrestling.
The Badger girls placed 4th overall.
Bonners Ferry Wrestling Club member Dalton Regehr earned himself some mat time this weekend, as he wrestled in the 7th Annual Legacy Duals and Invitational in Boise, Idaho.
On Friday he joined a dual team of wrestlers from around Southern Idaho finishing 4-1 in the dual tournament and continued on Saturday in the invitational portion of the tournament to go 5-0 and landed himself at the top of the podium. Dalton went 9-1 for the weekend.
The Badgers will host Kellogg High School on Tuesday, January 27 at 5 p.m. for another home dual.
It was altogether a successful weekend for Badger wrestling. Nice work and go Badgers!
