C4 Recap

Broken Bow takes a large lead into day two by putting ten wrestlers into the semifinals. Valentine has eight in the semis and are probably favorites in almost all of those matches, so they are certainly still gunning for a district title. Ord and Bridgeport are in 3rd and 4th with seven semifinalists each. In one of the deepest weights of the tournament we saw 7th seed Gilliland from Mitchell make it to the semis. Two six seeds in Pozehl from Ainsworth and Halverson of Gordon-Rushville pulled off upsets to punch their ticket to the semifinals. Also, fifth seeds Richardson from Ainsworth, Dodge of Broken Bow and Coley from Mitchell made the semis with some minor upsets. C4 didn’t do their 2nd round wrestlebacks today so the team scores are likely to increase a bit heading into the semis.

Top Five Teams:
Broken Bow 79.5
Valentine 60.5
Ord 48.5
