Waunakee High School hosts the Badger Conference wrestling tournament today with the action beginning at 9 AM. Wrestlers from Badger North and Badger South gather in Waunakee today with Milton and De Forest winning the conference dual titles this year and they perhaps rank as the pre-meet favorites for the team title today as well. Baraboo enters the day with Hunter Mulock, Kolt Bode and Adair Ebright all with 27 wins or more this season while Sauk-Prairie features Austin Fjoser, Mike Miller, Jared  Schaaf, Caleb Sisbach and Michael Gamboa who all have 26 wins or more with Miller and Schaaf as number one seeds today and Miller is a defending conference champion as well. Reedsburg’s Nate Erbs and Nick Sieber each have 21 wins as well coming into the weekend. De Forest was 6-0 in the conference dual season with Sauk, Reedsburg and Mt Horeb-Barneveld at 4-2, Baraboo 2-4, Portage 1-5 and Waunakee was 0-6 and points earned today based on the order of finish combined with points earned in the dual meet season help determine the final overall Badger North standings.
