Wrestling: Gophers Threepeat as 1A Champions Wrestling can sometimes be unique. A competitor can lose and it still helps a team win. Preventing (big) bonus points can prove major dividends to the team game. Chatfield freshman Brenden Kobs found himself in that position in the Gophers’ 1A team final with Goodhue (2-seed, 20-7). Chatfield, #2 in Class A (1-seed, 16-4), jumped … [Read more...]
