The Watuaga High wrestling team dropped a 36-30 decision Thursday night in a non-conference match at Lentz-Eggers Gym. Demetrius Kostis led the way with his 18th win of the year without a loss. He won his match at 132 pounds by tech

fall; Eli Hawley won by major decision at 138 pounds. Mark Townsend at 113, Gus Coffey at 126, and Jackson Lawley at 220 all won by decision.  Unfortunately, the Pioneers suffered five consecutive losses between 145-182 pounds that put them too far behind and cost them the match. The Pioneers travel to Wilson-Hunt Saturday for the Warriors Classic.
