WISCONSIN DELLS – Five Marshfield wrestlers placed at the Wisconsin State Freestyle/Greco Wrestling Tournament on May 5-6 at the Chula Vista Resort.
Justin Sternweis, a senior at Marshfield High School, took third in freestyle and Greco; Kane Seubert, a Marshfield junior, finished fifth in Greco; Mitch Hertel, a freshman at Marshfield, took fifth in freestyle and third in Greco; Samuel Mitchell, a fifth-grader at Nasonville Elementary School, was third in freestyle and second in Greco; and Nolan Hertel, a fifth-grader at Our Lady of Peace School, was fifth in freestyle and third in Greco at the state tournament.
The top three finishers in each division in both Greco and freestyle are strong possibilities to qualify for the Wisconsin National Wrestling Team. All top three finishers do move on to the Northern Plains Regional Tournament in Grand Island, Neb., on June 14-16. By placing in that tournament, the athletes will qualify to move onto to Freestyle/Greco USA Nationals in Fargo, N.D. for the older kids and Orem, Utah, for the younger ones, on June 25-27.
Also competing for Marshfield were Ian Gaertner, Aaron Sternweis and Bentley Schwanebeck-Ostermann.
