Season Review and Outlook

A great start, an exciting climax and a disappointing end would summarize the 2007-2008 Huskies wrestling season. The Huskies wrestlers put in a tremendous team effort in the Section 1AAA finals to come up short in a controversial finish.
The section champions, Albert Lea, went on to place second in State Class AAA. This should provide plenty of motivation for 2008-2009.

Highlights of the 2007-2008 season included a 43 dual meet win streak that equaled the OHS all-time team record set in 2005-2006. The Huskies finished runner-ups in both Section 1AAA and the Big Nine Conference. They won seven tournament titles too and qualified five wrestlers to the to the individual state tournament. Hector Millan placed third at 130, and Kade Zeman placed sixth at 160. Dillin Schlultz (112), Jordan Gnerer (171), and Casey Dehn (285), were all qualifiers. Millan set a new school single season takedown record with 254 on the year.
