Wrestling took over the gym at Rhinelander High School Dec. 5 as the middle school and high school teams faced off against the Crandon Cardinals. This was the first meet of the season for the high school team as they prepared for an invite at Wausau West Dec. 7.

The meet started at the 182 pound weight where Hodag Connor Lund pinned Silas Dennee with 1:07 left in the first period and the team would never look back. Final score of the meet was 59-9, with the Cardinals winning just two matches. Photos by Bob Mainhardt.
