Winning has followed the Luxemburg-Casco wrestling team all season long, and it will hopefully make the trip to the UW Field House on Saturday for the program's 20th appearance in the Team State Wrestling Championships.
The Spartans brought nine and finished with nine podium finishers, including 138-pound state champion Caleb Delebreau. Delebreau won his title with a 3-2 decision over Cole Bozile (Oconto Falls). Max Ronsman narrowly missed out on his second state championship, losing a 6-1 decision to Danny Heiser (Evansville). The Spartans also had Carson Neubert take 3rd place, Carson Blohowiak finished in fourth place, Blakelee Bastien in fifth place, and Jake Jandrin, Michael Bostwick, Isaac Jerabek, and Trace Schoenebeck snagged sixth place. The Spartans went undefeated in their dual meets this season and captured several tournament titles.
The top-seeded Spartans will face Kewaskum in the first dual of the day at 10 a.m. The Indians had four wrestlers at last weekend's individual state tournament, including third-place finishes by Bryston Scoles and Ethan Immel. In the team sectional, they beat Jefferson 73-6 before topping Campbellsport 49-21. The winner will take on #2 Saint Croix Falls or #3 Prairie du Chien at 3 p.m.
Tim Kowols and Newton Smerchek will have the call beginning at 9:45 a.m. on U-102.1 and NEWRadioSportsNetwork.com, with the pre-match show followed by the first whistle at 10 a.m. If the Spartans win, the duo will return for the championship match at 2:45 p.m. with the pre-match show followed by the first whistle at 3 p.m.
