TIGERS TAKE TWO AT RAIDER DUALS

Warsaw won two rounds of the Raider Duals hosted by Northridge, but dropped two Northern Lakes Conference matches in its three losses.

Warsaw topped South Bend Adams 51-24 and Homestead 41-28, but lost to NorthWood 40-39 on criteria and Northridge 61-15, as well as a 36-31 decision to Fort Wayne Snider.

In the loss to NorthWood, Warsaw built an early lead on the strength of six pins, but NorthWood closed with two pins and a forfeit to put the score at 39-39. Although the Tigers won the most head-to-head matchups, NorthWood was awarded an additional point as the tie-breaking criteria came down to least forfeits.

A pair of forfeits late hurt Warsaw in its loss to Snider, Ridge won 11 of the 14 columns in round three, the Tigers rallied with six pins to knock off the Eagles, and the Tigers jumped out to a 28-4 lead on the Spartans en route to a round five win.

Warsaw had Brock Hueber go 5-0 with three pins and a major decision to lead the team. Andrew Ross, Jacob Linky and Brandon Estepp each went 4-1, and the trio of Jose Martinez, Isaiah Owens and Brock Hogenson all went 3-2 on the day.

NorthWood did not report its final results from the tournament.
