Comments from the Monarch Coaching Staff:
Tonight was a great night for our program as we had a great crowd for our first home dual
meet. We were thankful that Glenwood and Kuemper brought their girls teams to compete
alongside the boys teams for their already scheduled triangular. With regionals being three
days away, it would have been easy for them to stay home rather than add another competition
to their schedule. So we're definitely glad they traveled and were able to get our girls a home
meet.
We've been wrestling for almost three months already and, for the most part, our home fans
have only heard about our girls team's progress throughout the season. I got a lot of
compliments on our technique and toughness. I'll take a team that shows that combination of
traits any day. The majority of the results didn't go our way, but you can see that we are
extending matches and hanging tough with girls we wouldn't have competed with earlier in
the season.
Alejandra got a big win by fall against Kuemper and dropped a close one against Glenwood.
Angie got a big win over a girl that she might see again on Friday. Yarecze lost a couple, but
battled tough in both. As always, at this point in the sport, some small adjustments can easily
sway these close matches in our favor.
We wish we could've gotten some more matches for our girls, but that's the way it goes
sometimes. Now we look ahead to get mentally prepared for Friday's regional meet to see if we
can make a trip to Iowa City the following week.
