Able to wrestle without much pressure and after his team had won six of the seven matches before him, the Wolves’ junior came up in the 145-pound match against Cherokee Trail’s Chance Korte and delivered a rousing 7-6 victory that ended up looming large later in Grandview’s 37-32 victory in the well-attended battle of neighborhood rivalry.
