Matter of determination

Pawhuska 120-pound sophomore wrestler Daniel Nightengale was one of the two Huskies who emerged victorious from last Tuesday’s road dual at Blackwell. Nightengale and another PHS sophomore, 170-pounder Caleb Bruce, both escaped with close decisions in their bouts against the Maroons, who are the No. 3-ranked high school squad in Oklahoma Class 3A. Coach Wade Rogers and the Huskie grapplers are to wrap up the 2014 portion of their season this weekend at the Kingfisher Tournament. The next home match for the Pawhuska squad will be Monday, Jan. 12, in a triangular event with Barnsdall and Morrison.
