Incredible team race that saw Maxwell win the district title by just ONE point over Mullen! Sutherland wasn’t far behind with their five big guns all making district finals.

No top four matches in this district but a few notable results. #10 Meyer beat #4 Stubbs in OT at 285. At 132 #8 Durfee beat #3 Peterka in OT 9-8. Luke Howitt rebounded from a loss last week to capture the district title at 220.

A common theme in Class D this year is how deep the 195lb weight is. Drey Smith of Maxwell beat #7 Stanczykin the semis before dropping the finals match to #3 White in the finals. White beat #10 Seier in the semis. Stanczyk beat Seier for third.
