Prep report: Smith makes fourth Wisconsin state title match
Northwestern’s Ian Smith will get his chance to wrestle for a second state championship at the Wisconsin state wrestling meet, but only after coming out on top in a sudden-victory situation against Blake Thiry of Prairie du Chien on Friday night at the Kohl Center in Madison.
Smith, the top seed in Division 2, 215 pounds, found himself in a tough situation against the fifth-seeded junior in the semifinals. After a scoreless first period, the only scoring in regulation time was a single escape point both ways.
The decisive move came quickly, as Smith scored the winning takedown just 21 seconds into overtime to claim the win and a berth in his fourth consecutive state championship match.
The win put Smith into Saturday’s championship match against Chase Matthias of Two Rivers, a rematch of the match in which he won his first state championship, at 195 pounds last year, in which Smith scored a late point to win 3-2. Smith met the same wrestler, Clayton Whiting of Oconto Falls, in title bouts in 2021 and 2022.
Smith successfully navigated his first hurdle to a state championship when he prevailed in a 13-4 major decision over Teige Perkins of Richland Center.
Northwestern’s Ivan Woodhull dropped his opening match at 126 points in a 6-0 decision to Michael Bostwick of Luxemburg-Casco, who went on to lose his next match, ending Woodhull’s tournament.
In the girls tournament on Thursday, Northwestern’s Adeline Pooler was pinned in 1:27 by Killian Kiernan of Muskego, which, after Kiernan lost her subsequent match, ended Pooler’s participation.
The finals session in which Smith is to wrestle Matthias is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. on Saturday.
Two Harbors 67, Greenway 46
The Agates held the host Raiders to just 17 points in the second half and claimed a 21-point road win on Friday night in Coleraine.
Jace Roberg scored 25 in the win, while Trevor Kleive and Jace Gomez finished with 14 and 13, respectively.
For Greenway, Gage Olson scored 25, but no other Raider scored more than six.
North Woods 80, Chisholm 78
The Grizzlies overcame a small halftime deficit and knocked off the Bluestreaks on Friday in Chisholm.
Jonah Burnett scored 26 and Louie Panicci 23 for North Woods, which outscored Chisholm 43-38 in the second half of their closely contested duel.
Lawrence Oberg scored 22 for Chisholm, which had a half-court bid at the buzzer miss the mark.
Barnum 77, Cook County 36
The Bombers had three scorers in double figures as they cruised to victory on Friday night at home.
Barnum was already up 42-23 at halftime when it held the Vikings to just 13 second-half points. Meanwhile, Pierce Korpela and teammates had the offensive side of things covered. Korpela scored 19, while Carlos Beckstrand scores 12 and Hayden Charboneau 11.

MADISON, Wis. (WMTV) – Gas prices are the cheapest they’ve been since the pandemic, just as people prepare to travel for the holidays.
According to AAA Wisconsin, the average gas prices is $2.86 per gallon in the state, a new low since 2020.
”We’ve had so many disruptions in the last four to five years between Covid and then the Ukraine conflict that has sent prices either far down or bringing them to historic highs,” AAA Director of Public Affairs Nick Jarmusz said. “We kind of forget what normal is.”
He said the low cost at the pump is a result of peak summer travel season ending, an even supply and demand for fuel and fewer global crises.
”Right now we’re in a pretty favorable balance between lower demand and pretty plentiful supply and no real disruptions to speak of,” he said.
People can save more money at the pump if they drive the speed limit.
”By sticking closer to the speed limit, avoiding aggressive driving in situations, you can actually increase your fuel efficiency by about 40% or up to 40%,” Jarmusz said. “Which can add up to pretty significant savings.”
If trends continue, he also said prices might drop even more. ”Really, I would not be surprised to see these prices continue to go down,” Jarmusz said. “I don’t think we’ve seen the lowest prices we’ll see this year yet.”
According to AAA the best times to travel before Thanksgiving on Thursday is in the morning hours on Tuesday and Wednesday. Roads will be busiest in the afternoons.
