CARTHAGE, Mo. — The Carthage Men’s Wrestling team hosted this year’s North/South Dual Tournament and placed fourth in their respective division. Neosho, also in the South division, took first, with wins over Grain Valley, Lee’s Summit, Ray-Pec, Liberty North and Park Hill. The South was down one team with a last-minute cancellation by Lebanon due to team illness, but consisted of Neosho, Carthage, Willard and Nixa. Park Hill posted a 3-1 record, finishing in first place for the North.
The tournament has served as a great way to meet up with schools that wouldn’t necessarily see each other until the MSHSAA state tournament. The competition is fierce and showcases talent from both Kansas City area and southwest Missouri Class 4 schools.
