Young Knights Sacrificing to Support Team!

Freshman Kiel VanDyken is getting better each week and is willing to do whatever he's called upon to support the team!  VanDyken has already posted 11 Varsity Wins and has contributed the most team points this season.  What makes Kiel's contribution impressive is he's willingness to put the team first.  He's competing at 189# and is willing to go up a weight class to 215# when needed, both these weight classes are upperclassmen dominated weights!   Today at Grandville, Kiel went 3-1 all by pin scoring 18 team points vs D1 East Kentwood, D1 Jenisoin and Adrian HS.  Another underclassman stepping up today contributing 12 team points by bumping up to a higher weight class is Sophomore Eugene Barrientes.  Eugene bumped from 119# to 125# today to gain a major decision 11-0 verses D1 Jenison and scoring a win by pin at 125# vs D1 East Kentwood.  Eugene has also reached double digit varsity wins on the season with 10 victories.  Another Sophomore in the varsity line up today is Jake Jonker going 3-1 competing at 140# and is now 11-3 on the season.  Senior Nate Moe went 3-1 at 145# and is chasing an individual accolade closing in on 100 career wins.  Senior Team Captain Jackson Pinkelman had a big win over D1 East Kentwood at 112# by a hard fought score of 9-8.  

The Knights sent 21 wrestlers to Grandville today, gaining high level competitive mat time against some of the States best!
