Karsen Wuebker of South Central Calhoun suffers a hard to explain 1-0 loss in the Class 1A State Championship match against Ty Martin of Don Bosco. Both wrestlers were outstanding and wrestled extremely well and hard. The match was scoreless after the 1st period with both wrestlers making an attempt to get a shot but neither could score. Wuebker started period two on top and nearly rode Martin for the entire period but Martin was able to get an escape with 0:01 left, taking a 1-0 lead. Wuebker was on the bottom in period two and kept nearly escaped and reversed it several times but Martin was outstanding holding on to at least a leg. The match came down to the final 0:24 and in the final 0:10 Wuebker nearly got the escape he needed to tie the match and send it to overtime. The clock expired and the two officials discussed the final few seconds and didn’t award him a point, ending the match with Martin winning 1-0. Wuebker ends an amazing season 59-3.
