Wrestling: Foley clips NL-Spicer to capture WCN title

NEW LONDON -- Foley lost only three matches Tuesday en route to beating New London-Spicer 39-13 to claim the West Central North Conference title.

Three decisions separated by six-or-less points to open the dual were won by Foley as the visiting Falcons took a quick 9-0 lead. Chase Austvold then won a 12-1 major decision at 125 pounds to give NLS its first win.

Foley would answer with a major decision of its own and a 4-3 decision at 135 to extend its lead to 16-4. Shawn Hatlestad then notched a pin midway through the second period for NLS at 140, but the Falcons would win six of the final seven matches to seal the win.

After two more major decisions gave Foley a comfortable 24-10 lead, the Falcons would get two one-point wins and two other wins that were separated by just four points. They would also get a pin at 215.

John Nething got the other win for the Wildcats with a 5-1 decision at 160.
