BHS Wrestling vs. Jennings County results from November 22.
The Batesville High School wrestling team traveled to Jennings County to face off for their 6th dual meet of the season. The Bulldogs started the night with a great win from freshman Caleb Bischoff-Niese in the 106lb class. Niese won by a 11-7 decision over Teagan Johnson earning three team points for the Bulldogs. The Bulldogs next win came from the final match of the night from senior Jon Kurtz in the 220lb class. Kurtz defeated Dakota Pearson by 11-9 earning the final three points of the night for the Bulldogs. The night ended with the Panthers on top of the Bulldogs 72-6. The Bulldogs season record drops to 2-4.
Additional Varsity wrestlers competing for the Bulldogs included: JT Linkel, Jonah Chase, Jon Vincent, Ethan Meyer, Chris Schene, Drew McLeod, Axel Garcia, and Drew Garbarini. Varsity wrestlers Michael Deal, Jackson Wooldridge, and Abram Garcia were sidelined for the evening but will be back for the upcoming match against Madison. Not having these wrestlers in the lineup was a huge disadvantage for the Bulldogs but gave some of our freshman replacing them a good taste of varsity wrestling. The experience they gained will benefit them all as the season moves forward.
Reserve Wrestlers competing for the Bulldogs include a lineup of four freshman: Mason Green, Nick Nobbe, Malachi Kirby, and Conner Batchelor.
