Ronk, competing in the 160-pound weight class, was pinned with 21.7 seconds left in the second period. "I was pleased with our overall performance and thought our kids really wrestled hard," Hewig said.

"It is always hard to gauge improvement when kids wrestle the same kids every day during practices, so it was good to see different opposition," Hewig said. "We had some spots where we wrestled really well and some spots where we struggled, but, overall, we were successful as a team. Our losses were manageable and were never out of hand. I think if we get a couple of young men back from injury and improve on simple mistakes, we can be a lot more competitive with those three teams (Heritage Hills, Evansville North and Evansville Central)." "The good thing is we see all the teams we lost to again this season," Hewig added. "So we can see how our adjustments work to make us better at tournament time."
