WEBSTER CITY — The Webster City wrestling team will put individual aspirations on the backburner and focus back in on the team concept Tuesday night. Maybe. On the strength of a second-place finish at a Class 2A sectional tournament on Saturday in Huxley, the Lynx qualified for the team regional duals for a second consecutive season. They are scheduled to face Bondurant-Farrar in a regional semifinal dual Tuesday night in Gilbert at 6 p.m., with the winner meeting either second-ranked Ballard or Prairie City-Monroe in the regional final at 8 p.m. The champion of the four-team regional will advance to the state dual tournament at the end of this month. But Mother Nature may have something to say about when the regional takes place. If Tuesday's mat action is postponed because of the weather, then the four teams will reconvene Wednesday night in Gilbert.
