Section 5A wrestling

The Jaguars stand at attention during the National Anthem this morning at Kimball Area high school.

Getting pins in their openers today in Kimball were Kaleb Voss (126) and Adam Jaeger (138). Jonah Voss also won in a decision.

Ben Feuerhake won his semifinal match.

Tyler Bents is state-bound at 106 pounds!! Great job!

And at 138 freshmen Adam Jaeger is state-bound!

And Colby Scramel is state-bound at 145 pounds!

Then some tough news...
Josey Tensen, Isaiah Gilbert and Steven Mady will not advance to state.

Another update: Ben Feuerhake joins an elite group of B-B-E athletes with a second straight trip to the state tournament! He is the 285-pound section champion.

Altogether the B-B-E Jaguars wrestling team is sending four guys to the Class 1A state tournament!! What a terrific day for the program!! The individual state tournament runs Friday and Saturday, February 27-28.

It's been a wild day. It started at the section wrestling tournament before continuing 16 miles down Highway 55 at Maple Lake high school at the site of the Central Minnesota Conference junior high boys' basketball tournament. Our 8th grade Jaguars took third place out of eight teams. They won the last game on an incredible jump shot by Peyton Van Beck!! Yeah, video will be posted of that later tonight!

Then the day finished up at the Snow-Week semi-formal dance at the high school. A total of 77 students were signed up and in attendance at the dance. What an outstanding showing from the B-B-E student body!! It sure beats sitting at home watching TV. Photos of random couples at the dance will appear in the Feb. 26 issue of the Bonanza Valley Voice.
