OAK HARBOR – Last season, Oak Harbor and Cascade wrestled for the Western Conference 4A dual meet title with Cascade emerging the winner.
This season, it is a new league, and an arduous climb up the greased pole that is the Wesco North Division. That climb began again for both teams Thursday as Cascade downed Oak Harbor 38-29 in the league opener for both schools.
“It is a long season ahead,” said Oak Harbor coach Brian Farmer. “Cascade wrestled well.”
Farmer sees a dog fight over the next two months in a division stacked with strong teams from top to bottom.
“It’s going to be one heck of a battle. There are a lot of excellent teams in the league. It should be a gem of a season,” said Farmer. “We have battled Cascade hard over the past three years. Now we will face the well established programs in places like Lake Stevens, Arlington, Marysville and Stanwood,” said Farmer.
“It’s a good thing for the kids,” noted Farmer. “They will have to work hard and be at their best every week .”
