MANTON — Mason County Central’s wrestling team made it to the finals of the Division 4 team districts Thursday night in Manton.

The Spartans defeated Forest Area, 36-27 in the first round but lost to Pine River, 52-21 in the championship match.

Wrestlers who picked up two wins on the day were senior Andrew Quinn at 285 pounds, freshman Hunter Sanford at 112, senior Jacob Maidens at 125 and sophomore Zane McCabe at 130.

Senior Raiden Keefer picked up a win at 189 against Forest Area.

“We wrestled well, but Pine River is a really strong team,” said Spartans head coach Trim Kendel. “I feel like we are wrestling really well right now, and that we have good momentum going into the individual district.”

Mason County competes in the Division 4 individual districts at Oscoda on Saturday.
