HEAR FROM COACH BECKER
"Really impressed with our team's performance. Our second and third string guys had standout performances and the majority of our starting lineup performed better since last night, so that's always good to see. Everyone competed with a lot of heart and fight.
We will enjoy the moment but we have a big test coming up with McKendree next week at the Wisconsin Wrestling Showcase in Madison. Time to keep the foot on the gas."
