He continues to work hard and get better." Barnett wrestled well, Yenter said. "He's lost some tough matches this year. He always goes hard and never gives up. Tonight he put a few moves together and beat a solid junior." "Snow and Anderson pinned good kids," Yenter said. "They are both wrestling very well right now." Yenter complimented Groshek, filling in for the Cardinals due to injury. "He's only a freshman, but he has all the tools to be a very good wrestler.

It's a very sad ending to a very successful wrestling career."

The victory, he said, showed the players they can win games when they perform and attack, even if they are small.
