Stanley-Boyd wrestling got underway for the fall season last week, with wrestlers heading to Black River Falls to compete at the Black River Falls Invite.

Stanley-Boyd took fifth place with 140.5 team points, a point that coach Greg Burzynski reflected on after the results were in.

We had a great first couple of rounds today,” Burzynski said. “We didn’t finish out the day strong though. These early tournaments help us figure out what we need it work on.” As to how things look moving forward, Burzynski was upbeat.

“We have a lot of hard-working kids,” he said. “We will continue to improve every day. If they continue to work the way they have so far this year, it will be exciting to see what they can do in February when tournament time rolls around.”
