Last time I hope: There has been a change to Thursday’s triangular times at Cannon Falls BACK to the original schedule. I got another email before practice tonight stating that the times were back to what I had originally wrote here and stated. Sorry for the confusion-I’m trying to keep up too! I deleted the previous inaccurate post.

Goodhue will wrestle Lake City in the second dual and Cannon Falls in the third dual of the evening. Also, Cannon Falls will be having a “Take Down  Cancer” night with a  few events to help raise funds/awareness for the Randy Shaver Cancer and Community Fund.

Thursday Triangular at Cannon Falls with Lake City:

3:10 Bus Departure

4:00 Weigh-ins

5:00 Cannon Falls vs. Lake City

6:30  Goodhue vs. Lake City

8:00 Goodhue vs. Cannon Falls

The Varsity team is coming off of a strong weekend at the Robbinsdale Cooper Duals. The Wildcats went 3-0 and put over 50+ points in all 3 duals, defeating the host team 59-9, Mankato West 57-18, and Section 1A opponent FCLMC (Fillmore Central-Lanesboro-Mabel-Canton) 54-29. The team currently carries a 10-7 dual record.

The final week is another busy week for the Goodhue Wrestling team. Thursday the team travels to a triangular at Cannon Falls with Lake City. Saturday the squads split up, with the Varsity traveling to the Robbinsdale Armstrong Duals, and the JV competing in the SE MN JV Duals held in Mazeppa. The JV Duals hasn’t determined the format, so it’s unclear right now about all dual times and such. However, the expectation is to get 3-4 duals I believe.

Next week will be even busier, with a  dual (possibly a triangular) in Byron Thursday, then hosting a make-up triangular Friday night, and then the HVL JV Tourney on Saturday.

Brave the cold and come into a warm gym as the Goodhue Wrestlers host the Z-M Cougars tonight!

2013-2014 Wrestling Seniors

Goodhue Wrestling will not be hosting the HVL triangular tonight (1/16/14) as planned. While Goodhue remains open, both Triton and Pine Island closed early today due to the weather, and consequently the matches are off.

The triangular has been rescheduled to February 7th. This is a Friday night, and we are scheduled to wrestle the night before in Byron, so we will have a 1# weight allowance as well that night.

Thursday night brings in the second home event of the season for the team. We will host HVL Conference opponents Pine Island and Triton.

The order and approximate times of the duals will be as follows:

5:00 Goodhue vs Triton
6:30 Triton vs Pine Island
8:00 Goodhue vs Pine Island

Saturday the Junior High squad has the weekend off while JV and the Varsity travel to the Rogers Royal Rumble Duals. We will wrestle 3 duals in the 8 team bracket, with an anticipated start time of 10:00 a.m. The bus departure is set for 6:30 a.m.

Here the boys take each other on in a end-of-practice game of tug of war. Coach Wingert couldn’t resist getting in on the action!

The Goodhue wrestling team continues its 3 day tour on the road. Thursday night, the team traveled to Wabasha-Kellogg High School for a triangular with the host and GMLOK. We went 2-0 on the night, defeating W-K 44-28 and GMLOK 51-24.

Last night saw another 2-0 night on the road, this time defeating the host team Hayfield 41-27, and then United South Central 45-30. This brings the current team overall dual record to 5-5 on the year.

Today, the Jr. High is wrestling in a Hastings Middle School tournament, and the JV is competing in Chatfield.

Varsity is about to start here in Cresco, IA at the Flanagan Invite. You can follow along online, as it will be on Track Wrestling. Simply go to http://www.trackwrestling.com and then click “Browse” then “Tournaments” then “Search”. Type in “Flanagan” and the first result should be the Flanagan Invite 2014. Click on that to get into the tournament “Dashboard” to watch matches progress.

After two days of  being closed due to the cold, Goodhue got one good practice in Wednesday night before traveling for 3 days of competition. Tonight we go to Wabasha-Kellogg for two duals against the host team as well as GMLOK. Friday the team travels to Hayfield as part of our regular HVL schedule, and in addition wrestle United South Central (USC). Saturday will see the team split in 3 directions. Varsity will travel to Cresco, IA for the Flanagan Invite, JV will travel to Chatfield for a tournament, and the Jr. High will compete in a middle school tournament – the Livingston Memorial Invite in Hastings.
