ALBANY — Bruin Bloomer placed fourth, and five other Baker Middle School wrestlers competed at the state tournament March 14-15 in Albany.
Bloomer was one of Baker’s three district champions, along with Cooper Bain and, on the girls side, Austin Hilton.
Others who competed at state are Romyn Myer, Wyatt Hansen and Coby Johnson.
“Our young team learned some hard lessons of what competing at the middle school was like,” Baker coach Andrew Gettle said. “With an overall great year we look forward to seeing new levels of grit academically and athletically as our team grows.”
