 Two seasons ago the Bemidji wrestling team battled their way to a school record of 26 wins. Last year the Jacks dropped a class and rattled off 25 wins. This year the Jacks are back in class 2A returning 10 of the 14 wrestlers who hit the mat for them a season ago. And while they know it won't be an easy task, they expect to compete for a section 8 2A title and get back to state as a team. I don't think our expectations change much. It's still our goal to be section champions, everybody in the state tournament. We have a very competitive and balanced group of young wrestlers this year and we're looking forward to a good season. Last year we had a few holes in our lineup but this year we're kind of solid throughout the whole lineup. We don't have any superstars like we did last year but I think we're pretty solid. What a lot of people don't realize is we were really spread out last year as far as kids wrestling up weights to cover weights. This year our kids will fit into the weights a lot better and like I said we'll be very competitive and more balanced.
