Frazee became the center of the wrestling world, at least in west central Minnesota, on Saturday as the Hornets hosted teams from as far east as Staples-Motley to as far west as Fargo. 

Bailey Peichel tries to get a reversal against Deagan Captain of BHVPP. 

The Hornets went 3-0 in a meet that included teams like Moorhead, Staples-Motley, Fargo Davies and Bertha-Hewitt/Verndale/Parkers Prairie.

In their opening match of the morning, Frazee found themselves in a big hole from the start against BHVPP as the Hornets trailed 25-0 following the 132 lbs. match. That’s when the Hornets went on a 42-3 run to blow past the Raiders by a score of 42-38.

Cade Nagel was the first Hornet to get on the scoreboard when he picked up a pin at 138 lbs., before Frazee won the final seven matches in a row to secure the win. In fact, the Hornets won five of the final six matches by falls with Jake Nagel, Preston Mayfield, Max Rue, Jack Graham and Xander Kohler all winning by fall. 

Frazee’s match against Staples-Motley started out just the same for the Hornets as they once again found themselves in a 32-0 hole after 145 lbs., before once again dominating the upper weights by winning the final seven matches to come away with a 39-32 win.

Pins were once again key for the Hornets as they secured pins in six of the final seven matches with Tyler Moe, Jake Nagel, Preston Mayfield, Jack Graham, Daniel Graham and Xander Kohler all picking up pins. 

The Hornets took the lead for the first time by a score of 33-32 after Daniel Graham secured a pin at 220 lbs. and Kohler iced the match with a pin at heavyweight in overtime. 

In their match against Moorhead the Hornets got off to a quick start and never looked back as they defeated the Spuds by a score of 48-15. The Hornets dropped just three out of the 14 matches wrestled as they capped off a successful day of wrestling.

A pair of Hornet wrestlers picked up historic milestones on Saturday as Tyler Moe picked up his 75th career win, while Frazee senior Jake Nagel secured his 100th career win. 

Saturday’s wins improve the Hornets to 4-1 on the season as they will now take an extended break from action for the holidays.
