The Northfield Raiders traveled to Buffalo on Saturday, January 8th to wrestle in the Gerry Bakke Memorial Invite and tied for sixth place. Northfield brought 11 varsity and nine junior varsity boys along with one female wrestler.
Coming off a strong performance at Rumble On The Red, the largest high school sanctioned wrestling tournament in the United States, the Raiders hosted their first home meet of the year against Mankato East. Northfield escaped with a narrow 36-34 victory backed by pins from Jack Pribyl and Owen Murphy. However, the star of the show was sophomore Ryan Kuyper, who upset the number seven ranked 195lbs wrestler in the state at AA, Brian Tilges, by decision 8-6.
