Prairie claims share of MVC mat crown
DUBUQUE - Prairie dusted off Kennedy and Dubuque Hempstead to finish in a tie with Linn-Mar for the Mississippi Valley Conference Valley Division wrestling title Thursday night at Hempstead.
The Hawks (24-3, 12-1) clobbered Kennedy 53-22 and pummelled Hempstead 62-13.
Prairie may have suffered a blow to its state dual meet title hopes, however. Josh Wenger, the Hawks' 126-pounder, had to default because of injury in his match against Kennedy's Nathan Waterhouse.
