CARROLLTON – Wylie East held its own in the Feb. 8 District 9-5A wrestling meet at R.L. Turner High School.

The Raiders scored 121 points for fifth place, with Highland Park (221), Carrollton Creekview (192) and McKinney North (153) in the top three.

“I feel that the varsity did well. We took seven wrestlers and six qualified, with one alternate,” WEHS Tad Hazlewood said. Now we have to practice well this week for the regional tournament.”

In the 113-pound weight class bracket D’Andre Brown finished fourth after beating Highland Park’s Cortland Kimzey.

In 132, Tyler Stephens claimed fourth following a win over Creekview’s Diego Bonilla.

In 152 Kyle Fehrenbacher took first after knocking off Robert Kimzey.
