At least one NEC rival stands in the way of a second straight appearance at the WIAA State Team  Wrestling Tournament for Luxemburg-Casco.

The Spartans advanced to team sectionals after sending 11 of its 14 wrestlers out of the Denmark Regional on Saturday, scoring 294 points compared to 198 for second-place Denmark. Winning their brackets were Michael Bostwick (113), Blakelee Bastien (126), Easton Worachek (132), Caleb Delebreau (138), and Max Ronsman (145). In the semifinals, the Spartans will face Seymour who qualified 10 to this weekend's sectionals. Ryan Tomazevic (138) was their only champion. 

The winner of that dual will face the victor of Denmark and Freedom. The Spartans have beaten both teams this season in duals, topping the Irish 47-29 on January 20th and the Vikings 57-12 on December 15th.

The semifinal against Seymour will begin at 6 p.m. at Freedom High School. The sectional championship will take place 20 minutes after the conclusion of the first match.
