The Tomahawk wrestling team sent eight members to compete in the Division 2 sectional in Somerset Saturday, and three grapplers will be moving on to the state meet.
Nick Hagar -- who is a two-time state champion at 125 and 135 -- qualified for state by winning the 140-pound weight class. Hagar (46-0) was dominant, scoring a pin over Rice Lake's Zach Strenke at 2:58 in the opening round and a pin over West Salem/ Bangor's Steve Stark at 2:46 the next round. In the finals, Hagar won by major decision, 10-0, over Bloomer's Zach Borofka.

Zach Zehner (130) cruised in the first two rounds -- a pin at 3:41 in his first match and a 13-5 victory in his second match -- and fell 3-2 in the final to Mondovi's Derek Marten.

Girl Scouts tour Rhinelander
The best thing about our community is the people. That's the response you will get from Girl Scout Troop 169 after they toured several downtown businesses. The trip lasted 8 hours and included tours of the library, police station, fire department, Forth Floral, Family Video, Trig's, Trig's Floral, the post office and the Daily News. At each business the girls were met with a friendly guide who patiently answered all of their questions and sent them on their way. They returned home later that day with a bag full of souvenirs and a better understanding of the community. Although when you ask the girls about the tour, they don't mention coloring books, pins or plants, they remember the smiling faces that took time to show them around. READ MORE >
