Four Badgers go unbeaten at Van Tuinstra Duals
SPIRIT LAKE — Despite gaps in their lineup, the Bonners Ferry wrestling had some success at the Van Tuinstra Duals on Jan. 19 at Timberlake High School.
“We are still battling injuries and illnesses, so our lineup still isn’t at 100 percent,” said assistant coach Kevin Campbell. “But the kids stepping onto the mat are battling hard and getting better every week.”
As a team, the Badgers were edged by Lakeland, defeated the Renegades, fell to Lake City and host Timberlake, then finished with a dual-meet win over Sandpoint.
Evan Barajas, Jake Summerfield, Manuel Naccarato, and Gabe See all went undefeated for the day, with Barajas winning all three of his matches by pin and Gabe See getting three of his four victories by pin. Naccarato went 5-0 and Summerfield went 2-0.
Jake Summerfield has been coming on strong lately after a rough start to the year, Campbell said.
“He has won five straight matches, and he is getting tougher every day,” said Campbell. “We are pretty happy with his progress.”
With three pins and two forfeit wins for the day, Evan Barajas came home strong in his 120-pound weight class.
“Evan Barajas has been a human highlight reel all season,” said Campbell. “He is wrestling at a really high level right now. He is 22-5 on the season.”
Gabe See had three pins, one forfeit, and one decision win for the evening.
“Gabe See is also one of the kids we can count on to get the job done,” said Campbell. “He leads the team with a 26-5 record on the season.”
Manuel Naccarato continues to improve throughout the season as well. He is second on the team in wins at 25-6.
“These three, See, Barajas, and Naccarato, have become the anchors of our lineup,” said Campbell. “These are the kids we can always count on to get us team points. Now we are looking to see who steps up next. We have a lot of hard working kids, and we expect to see more kids following those leaders and stepping up. Things are looking up for BFHS Wrestling.”
- Also last week, the Badgers traveled to Rathdrum for a dual meet with the class 4A Lakeland.
While the Hawks won the dual 51-26, the Badgers had wins from Summerfield, Barajas, Naccarato, and See. Austin Madden won by forfeit at 106.
