Prairie wrestlers chasing past glory

Sat - 27 Nov Written by Jim Ecker

Prairie finished the highest of all Metro schools at the Class 3A state wrestling tournament last season, so that was good.

But the Hawks tied for 17th in the team standings, which is not so good for a school with a rich tradition in the sport.

Prairie won state titles in 1979 and 1995 and finished second in 1978, ’80, ’83 and ’97, during the glory years. Coach Blake Williams is trying to steer the Hawks in that direction, and thinks he’s getting closer.
