Local Wrestler
Congratulations to North Bend’s Nathan Mersino for placing 5th in the Greco Roman State Wrestling tournament in Corvallis last weekend. Nathan also had two wins in the freestyle competition but fell just short of the placing round in the 22 man bracket. Thank you to all Mat Shark participants this year as well as Darius Davis, Alex Backman, and Austin Miller for helping Nathan train for the state tournament.
