KELLOGG WRESTLING

• Feb. 2

KELLOGG — The Wildcats got big nights from several of their standouts en route to beating the visiting Bulldogs 43-42 at Andrews Gymnasium.

The tight score makes it look like Sandpoint was actually competitive during the evening, but the Bulldogs did most of their damage in the forfeit department — meanwhile Kellogg won 15 of the 19 contested matches on the evening.

“I'm really proud of the team tonight. As usual, we spotted our opponents 30 points in forfeits so the way we came back and controlled what we could showed a lot of heart from this team,” Kellogg head coach Scott Miller said. “They believe they have a chance every time they step on the mat. All of our kids really stepped up tonight.”

BONNERS FERRY — The Wildcats put themselves right in the thick of things in a tightly contested Conrad Gardner Tournament at Bonners Ferry High School.

Seven Kellogg grapplers found their way into the championship matches, two emerged victorious.

Wyatt Hei and Kolter Wood continued their run of dominant performances bringing home the 113 and 120 pound titles respectively, Ricky Haralson, Jaeger Hall, Tanner Williams, Ethan Guy, and Brady Vergobbi all brought home second place finishes.

While Post Falls ran away with the team score, the 12-point differential between second place and sixth place made every single point scored an important one.

“Our team was short-handed again, but just went out and took care of what they had control of,” Kellogg head coach Scott Miller said. “I'm really proud of getting seven in the finals and Wyatt and Kolter were outstanding in winning their weight classes. Our eight scorers just couldn't outscore the other teams who had 12-15 scorers but they did a great job making it interesting for everyone else. Very proud of all our placers and feel real good about moving forward as we continue to get ready for the postseason.”
