Tues. Dec. 13 Home Merrill 7:30 p.m. Merrill came in as the number two ranked team in the state and will likely hold that spot for awhile longer as the Red Raiders used extra points in 6 matches along with 3 wins by decision to down the Bluejays 41-15. Merrill did start off quick as 119 pound Shawn Perry beat James Berdan 6-0 and 125 pound Matt Schneider beat Jordan Quinell 6-2. Rapids then pulled to within 1 when Jared Jaminski scored a TF over Tyler Swan. The Red Raiders then took the lead when Ben Best picked up 6 points by inj. def. over Dylan Ruplinger. Merrill's number 1 ranked, Brad Welter, could not pick up extra points but was able to beat Cody Tesch 10-4 and Merrill's other top ranked wrestler, Dustin Perry, was only able to pick up 3 team points when he beat Juan Medina 5-1. Those two matches did give Merrill a slim 12-11 lead. At 152 Mike Fuller used a last second escape to go to OT with Levi Lassa. Mike then took Lassa to the mat for an exciting 5-3 win. To me, that appeared to be the turning point. At 160 Kevin Tritz put on a gutsy display and another take down clinic by beating Joe Perry 18-8. At 171 Mike Casey scored a very impressive 6-4 decision over Merrill's Matt Hoeft. At 189 Merrill won their last match of the night when Casey Gray beat Justin Fuller 8-6. At 215 Stever Virgil dominated his match with Ben Natzke and ultimately scored a 25-8 TF. At 275 Matt Peeters won a very nice 5-1 decision over Merrill's Joe Levivkis. At 103 Merrill forfeited to Carl DeLuca and at 112 Josh Chappa pinned Brodie Altfillisch in 5:25.

Fri & Sat. Dec. 30 & 31 Away The Clash - National High School Duals. Rochester, MN. Day one of the Clash is in the books. For the Red Raiders it was a day of ups and downs. A 1 point loss to Hastings MN in the second round forced the Red Raiders into a rematch with the currently 6th ranked (nationally) Owatonna Huskies. Last year Owatonna defeated Rapids by a fairly substantial margin. This year was different as the Red Raiders tamed the Huskies 46-12. In the second round the Red Raiders were needed 2 more points against surprisingly strong Hastings. Hasting came away with a 27-26 victory. In the first round the Red Raiders were all over GMLOK, MN and ultimately defeated them 55-15. The second round loss to Hastings and the win over Owatonna means that the Red Raiders will be in the 3rd pool tomorrow and cannot finish higher than 9th.

Tues. Jan 10 Home DC Everest 7:30 p.m. 100 consecutive Wisconsin Valley Conference dual meet wins in row. That's the milestone the Red Raiders reached tonight. They did it by defeating the DC Everest Evergreens 48-12. The incredible win streak goes all the way back to 1993. At 103 Carl DeLuca pinned Matt Pritzl in 1:23.

Thurs. Jan 12 Away Wausau West. Although the Red Raiders beat the Warriors of Wausau West tonight, it's my opinion that they didn't look quite as sharp as they have in other meets this year.

I have a feeling we'll see a much more fired up Red Raider team this Saturday as they face Ellsworth, Totino Grace and nationally ranked Glenbard North at the fieldhouse in Wisconsin Rapids. In case you're not aware, Glenbard North was a top four finisher at the Clash and looks to be very solid.
Sat. Jan. 14 Home Rapids Quad Noon. Glenbard North IL, Ellsworth, WI and Totino Grace, MN. Overall the Rad Raiders wrestled much better today than they did Thursday night, but not good enough to beat a very tough Glenbard North team. After this year's 28-20 loss, the Raiders are now 4-4 against Glenbard North. At 103 Tony Ramos defeated Carl DeLuca 17-7. At 112 Josh Chappa beat Jimmy Chase 4-0.

Justin Fuller beat Clayton 2-0. Steve Virgil beat Jordan Eggenberger 10-7 and Matt Peeters beat Jon Chisholm 7-1.
Thurs. Jan. 19 Home Antigo 7:30 p.m. It looked to me as though the Red Raiders unloaded a little frustration tonight and in the process handed it to Antigo in more ways than one. The Red Raiders scored 3 technical falls, 2 pins, 1 major decision and 3 decisions as they pounded a short handed Antigo team 70-0. Carl DeLuca, Josh Chappa, Jared Jaminski, Juan Medina and Matt Peeters all received a forfeit. At 119 James Berdan won on a 17-2 TF. At 125 Jordan Quinnell beat Nick King 8-4.

Tues. Feb. 14 Home Team Sectionals 7:00 pm What A Dual Meet!! If you missed it, you missed a dandy. The Red Raiders out coached, out hustled, out wrestled and ultimately out scored Kaukuana 40-24 In the process they earned a trip to Madison for a shot at another state title. Jeremy Clark got things going in a big time way for the Raiders as he was all over the state's number two ranked 103 pound wrestler, Adam VanSchyndel, and finally pinned him in 3:55. Josh Chappa followed suit by pinning Travis Frassetto in 1:58. Jared Jaminski won by major decision over Glen Meyerhofer of Kaukauna 11-3. At 125 Kaunkauna finally got on the board as Nate Coulliard defeated Jordan Quinnell 1-0. Kaukuana then went on a bit of a run by winning the next 3 matches to pull within 1 point.

Sat. Feb. 18 Individual Sectionals Kaukauna 10:00 a.m. If you're into reading some of the online forums, you might have the idea that the Red Raiders would have been out-manned at the extremely tough Kaukauna Sectional. Most predictions had the Raiders qualifying 4 or 5 wrestlers for the State individual Tournament. Well, as is usually the case when someone provides some incentive, the Red Raiders came though in a big way. Rather than qualifying 4, they are sending 8 outstanding individuals down to Madison. Jeremy Clark, Josh Chappa, Jared Jaminski, Jordan Quinnell, Kevin Tritz, Mike Casey, Justin Fuller and Steve Virgil all qualified. Quinnell, Tritz and Casey qualified as Sectional Champions while Clark, Chappa, Jaminski, Fuller and Virgil will be making the trip as a Sectional Runner-up. If you're interested in team points, the Red Raider picked up a whopping 145.5 points. kaukuana was a distant second with 101 (5 qualifiers) and Pulaski was third with 72 points (3 qualifiers).
