Over the weekend 5 Highland wrestlers went to state to wrestle the best in the state. Two medaled at the event and one had a 2 and 2 record. It was a jaw dropping, brutal way to the top for the wrestlers. Johnny Miska lost in the blood round, but had a record of 2 wins and 2 loses. Matteo Carlsen placed 2nd and Cade Christensen placed 1st. The team over all had their best team finish placing 14th as a team. Awesome job wrestlers!
