State wrestling: Area foursome have sights set on state championships
Four on floor
CHAMPAIGN – Reaching the state finals is getting to be old hat for Newman's Brian Bahrs.
He's at that level for the third time in 4 years, and he's got some company. Oregon's Brandon Sklavanitis, Rock Falls' Shawn Skinner and AFC's Jake Kaecker each won semifinal bouts Friday night at the IHSA state wrestling tournament in Assembly Hall.
They'll be back in action Saturday night. Bahrs will be seeking his third title, having won as a freshman and a junior. For the other three, it is their first championship bout appearance.
