The wrestlers competed in a very difficult district at Lowell HS Saturday and two individuals placed fourth which qualifies them for Regionals.

Freshman Caleb Pugh (23-8) avenged a loss from one week ago against his opponent from Lowell on his way to a fourth place finish.  Caleb's day started with a pin in the opening round.  In the quarterfinal match, he lost to the eventual third place finisher.  Caleb won his first consolation match by a fall.  Caleb needed to win his next match to advance to Regionals and his next opponent was familiar as Caleb had lost to him a week ago at the OK White conference tournament.  Caleb came out strong and built a 4-0 lead before pinning his opponent from Lowell with 2 seconds remaining in the match.

Junior Will Owens (24-9) beat his opponents on their feet, scoring 10 takedowns while only allowing 1.  Will pinned his first round opponent and won by major decision (12-2) in the quarterfinals.  He lost to the eventual champion in the semifinals.  With his back against the wall in the blood round, he secured a 16-1 technical fall to advance to regionals.
