MHS grapplers win one, lose one
First part of season ends 'in great fashion,' coach says
Marion High School grapplers continue to improve with each contest.
During a double dual Thursday, the Marion squad defeated Hesston 42-27, and tied Chase County 33-33.
"We did really well," said MHS head wrestling coach Chad Adkins. "Our kids wrestled great. They're all showing improvement."
Adkins said his squad has quite a few young grapplers, but all the members are looking good. He noted team members Steven Boone, Thad Looper, Zac Ewert, and Chelsea Arnold have shown improvement in each outing.
"Steven and Chelsea are ranked in state," Adkins said.
As the MHS wrestlers go into Christmas break, the squad has a record of four duel wins, one loss and one tie, Adkins said.
"We ended the first part of the season in great fashion. I'm really excited about the remainder of the year," he said.
