On senior night at Washington High School, the Demon wrestling team split a triangular defeating Fairfield 58-9 and falling to Grinnell 52-15.

As heard on KCII, with the dual score tied at 6-6 against the Trojans, the Demons had a string of freshmen that initiated some separation. Colley Billingsley got it started at 220 lbs with a pin (3:29), Brayden Hartman got the crowd into it with a fall at 285 lbs (1:16), and Jack Kleese had a 15-4 major decision at 106 lbs. The veterans then took over with senior Matt Collett winning by a 12-0 major at 120 lbs, Brandon Dickel pinned his opponent at 132 lbs (1:06), Justin Simmering by fall (0:59) at 138 lbs, and Dillan Sanders with a 15-3 major at 145 lbs. Other contested match winners included Logan Frazer at 152 lbs by fall (3:01), Ayden Frazier at 160 lbs by an 8-0 major, and Jacob Hill at 170 lbs by fall (1:30).

The competition got steeper against the Tigers with Grinnell winning eight of 11 contested matches. Demon winners included Matt Collett at 120 lbs by fall (1:03), Ayden Frazer at 160 lbs by a 9-2 decision, and Brayden Hartman at 285 lbs by fall (1:18).

The Demons move their dual record to 7-4 and they get back on the mat tomorrow at Mount Vernon for a tournament.
