The Jaguars have three to state so far!

Tyler Jensen and Walker Bents will both battle for state trips in true second matches.

Michael Doubek, a junior, placed fifth in his bracket.

Mark Jenniges won an 8-5 decision at 182 pounds.

*Update: to recap a little here...Walker Bents lost a 7-3 decision to KMS's Coy Gunderson in the 106-pound finals. Walker now faces seventh grader Austin Kiecker of BOLD in a true second match.

At 132, Tyler Jensen lost in the finals to undefeated Mason Gode (44-0) of LPGE/Browerville. Jensen now faces sophomore Jackson Stadsvold of Minnewaska Area in a true second match.

Stay tuned for more!!!

**Update: freshmen Walker Bents won in grand style at 106 to get his first trip to state!! He stuck Kiecker within 30 seconds in the first period. I had camera trouble and didn't get video. Grrrr.

That makes four B-B-E wrestlers to state so far!!

And make it five! Tyler Jensen won a 4-3 decision in his true second match to advance to state for the second year in a row.
