NORTHFIELD &045; According to coach Larry Goodnature, the members of the Albert Lea High School wrestling team are not satisfied with winning at this point.

They want pins.

&uot;It’s really fun to watch them right now because they’re so aggressive,&uot; said Goodnature. &uot;They’re going for the fall all the time, and it showed tonight.&uot;

The Tigers won two matches by fall and two by technical fall Thursday while defeating Lakeville 45-15 in a nonconference dual meet at Northfield. A scheduled second dual meet with the host team was postponed until next Thursday, when both squads are at Rochester John Marshall.

Goodnature, whose team improved to 4-2 in duals, said the Lakeville meet was key for individual and team seeding in the section tournament.

&uot;We wanted to go out and wrestled well, and the kids really did,&uot; said the coach. &uot;They’re wrestling real hard right now.&uot;

The results, by weight: 119 pounds, Matt Morris won 10-0; 125, Alex Hansen won 11-2 major decision; 130, Nate Goodnature lost 7-2; 135, Neal Underdahl won 5-0; 140, Adam Elseth won 20-5 tech fall; 145, Jake Levisen lost by fall, 5:56; 152, Dustin Eggum lost 16-14 in overtime; 160, Cory Frerk won 17-5 major decision; 171, Jared Butler lost 4-1; 189, Mike Honeycutt won 8-0 major decision; 215, Randy Larson won 7-5 in overtime; 275, Chris Hable won by fall, 1:32; 103, Zach Hansen won by fall, 1:07; 112, Josh Hansen won 15-0 tech fall.

Eggum, who last week beat the No. 3 rated wrestler in Class AA, nearly knocked off Class AAA’s fourth-rated individual.
