Ottawa finishes 10th at Wheaton: At Wheaton Warrenville South High School, the Pirates placed 10th of the 17 teams at the Ed Ewoldt Memorial Invite on Saturday.

Wes Weatherford (18-3) defeated a pair of ranked opponents to capture the championship at 190 pounds, while Mayson Munson (21-2) recorded a pair of pinfalls on the way to the title at 113 for Ottawa. Vaughn Anderson (4th at 215) and Jerome Bridwell (8th at 150) also wrestled well.

“We hadn’t competed in almost two weeks, so it was up in the air on how we were going to perform after such a long layoff. I think we performed well overall,” Ottawa coach Peter Marx said. “There were a couple matches we let slip away but in general we wrestled well. I’m proud of how we competed today and we are excited to try finish the season strong. January is the homestretch, time to clean up our mistakes and get ready for the post season.”
