The Iola wrestling team held strong with just three wrestlers on Thursday at their home double-dual versus Osawatomie and West Elk.
The Mustangs were outmanned by the Trojans 36-18 but, thanks to pinning all three of their opponents, they beat the Patriots to get their first dual win in quite some time.
“It shows that we are making improvements,” head coach Jason Bates said. “We set goals at the start of the season and getting the win today shows that we’re working hard enough to reach them. We’re going to continue setting goals and working toward those.”
