Reardan senior Sterling McLaughlin takes down his opponent in Colfax Thursday, Jan. 5.

CHENEY-Reardan wrestlers placed 10th out of 21 teams at Cheney High School's Blackhawk invite Saturday, Jan. 7.

Preston Neufeld placed first in the 106-pound weight class, pinning all four opponents.

Connor Kline placed second in the 170-pound weight class by winning three of four matches. All his wins were via pin.

Carson Durbin, Tristin Burril and Carson Kline placed fourth, fifth and sixth, respectively.

Eight other wrestlers competed for the Screaming Eagles but did not place.

Neufeld is currently 22-1 on the season with his sole loss coming at the hands of the Idaho state champion at the Tri-state Tournament.

"I am super proud of these kids," Reardan head coach Justin Neufeld said. "We are constantly getting guys in the medaling matches and a few in the championship finals. We will continue getting better, always working towards The Dome (Tacoma)."

Davenport was similarly successful on the mats this week, taking first place at the Banks Lake Brawl in Coulee City Saturday. Individual results were not available by press time.
