Congratulations! WE ARE NEWELL!
The Newell Irrigator Wrestlers competed in Chadron today. They saw lots of new adversaries to go against. There were 26 tough teams at the meet. Dyson pinned his way into the
1st place. What a great day for him. Bodie came up 1 match short of reaching the top placing rounds. Will wrestled JV and earned 4th place. On Tuesday the team wrestles at 4:30 in Lemmon. Their home meet is coming soon, February 4th. It is their only home meet. They would love to have as many fans in the stands as possible to cheer them on. Photos and story by Mrs. Erk.
