La Crosse, WI – The Hastings Raiders made a powerful statement at the highly competitive THE CLASH wrestling tournament this weekend, showcasing their depth, skill, and determination. The prestigious event, held annually in La Crosse, attracts some of the best high school wrestling teams from across the country, and this year, Hastings was right in the thick of the action. Both the Hastings girls and boys participated and both teams finished third in their division. The boys’ champion was La Cross Aquinas with second place going to Anoka. The girls’ champion was Raccoon River-Northwest with second place going to Apple Valley.
Here are the individual results for both teams’ courtesy of TrackWrestling.com. Keep in mind, wrestling in Wisconsin does a random draw for the starting weight class of the meet where Minnesota starts at the lightest weight class every meet. That is why the order of weights looks different for MN readers.
