With only six Chargers competing out of fourteen possible weight classes, the ACGC wrestling team finished eleventh out of sixteen teams at the highly competitive Riverside Invitational at Oakland yesterday. Four of the six Charger grapplers placed, as they came away with two third place and two fourth place finishes. Logan-Magnolia took top honors at the meet with 228.5 points,

Seth Danker dropped his first match of the season when he was pinned in twenty eight seconds in the semifinals by eventual 126 pound champion Adam Allard of West Sioux (Haywarden). Danker claimed the bronze when he threw Brodyn Wray of East Mills in

0:55. Danker's record now stands at 10-1.

Gunnar Larsen also placed third at 132 and improved his record to 9-2. Larsen lost by a single point, 1-0, in the semifinals, but bounced back to finish third with a 7-0 decision over Brady Thompson of Logan-Magnolia.

Carter Andreason and Kale Rowley took fourth place at 138 and 145 respectively. Andreason is now 3-2 for the season and Rowley is 7-4. Cole Plowman at 170 and Devon Jackson at 182 also competed for the Chargers, but did not place.

The Chargers will host a triangular meet on Tuesday. The meet will be a unique experiment, as it will be held at the same time as high school basketball games. The wrestling will get underway at 5:50 and will be held in the small gym (formerly the junior high gym) at the high school in Guthrie Center. Go Chargers!
