Devan Hoge (120 lb) and Kegan Salerno (126 lb) each won by fall, and Walker Pelto (195 lb) added a victory by decision in an exciting back-and-forth with Cokeville’s Landon Walker.
The final scoring for Bear Lake came with Justin Ray’s (138 lb) decision over Jaxon Weske.
On Jan. 13 and 14, the team travelled to Wendell for the Magic Valley Classic. Walker Pelto took first place in the 182-lb bracket, winning by fall over Declan Harris of Ririe. Kegan Salerno and Justin Ray won matches in consolation rounds.
