By Staff Reports
Thursday, December 06, 2007 | No comments posted.
Thurston handed host Marshfield a 54-27 loss in a Midwestern League dual meet on Wednesday.
The defending league champion Colts jumped out to a big lead by claiming pins in the first four matches — the night started at 160 pounds.
Marshfield got a pair of pins — by Coti Cook at 135 pounds and Zakk Borgogno at 152. Cameron Winfrey won his match at 145 pounds by an 11-8 margin.
The Pirates also won two other bouts by forfeit.
The match was the first action of the season for Marshfield.
“This was our first time out on the mat,” said Marshfield assistant Russ Namitz. “And we wrestled five kids up a weight class to try to fill a lineup.”
Marshfield is at the Eagle Point tournament on Saturday and then the Coast Classic at North Bend next weekend.
