Joining other area teams at the 44th annual Terry Teiken wrestling tournament, at Lake Park-Audubon, on Jan. 13, the Fergus Falls Otters finished in fourth place with a team total of 141.05.
Pequot Lakes-Pine River-Backus took home the team title with 284.52 points, Dilworth-Glyndon-Felton was runner up at 191.03 and Osakis was third at 150.04.
Caleb Fronning won his second career Terry Teiken Championship and won his 50th career match with his victory in the finals.
"We scored nearly fifty more points this season than we did last season at this tournament,” mentioned Otters coach Adam Schlepp. “We also scored our highest individual tournament team score of this season. Extremely proud of how we wrestled."
Darlys Hess received the Dean Fox Sportsmanship Award for 64 years of love and support for the sport of wrestling.
"The sport of wrestling and everyone involved with it, is honored to recognize Hess,” said Schlepp. “She has served in almost every role imaginable, from coach's wife to the grandmother of statisticians. Her dedication to supporting those involved with wrestling over the last 64 years is admirable."
