Waukon's junior varsity wrestlers completed the 2004-05 season this past week with a pair of tournaments.

Riceville Tourney...
Tuesday, Feb. 1, the Indians headed to Riceville for tournament action. Waukon ended the day with a trio of championship finishes and four runners-up.
Format for the event varied slightly from most tournaments. Wrestlers were divided into four-man brackets and didn't compete in the typical weight classes.

After piecing together a four game win streak, the Waukon boys basketball team hit a skid this past week, suffering a trio of losses. Tuesday, Feb. 1, the Indians fell in Northeast Iowa Conference competition to second-rated Crestwood by a 66-55 tally. Friday, Feb. 4, Waukon took a 76-71 loss at North Fayette despite having a fine shooting night. Prairie du Chien handed the Tribe its third straight loss Monday, Feb. 7 by a 55-39 count.
Overall, the Indians are 9-7, including an even 4-4 mark in the NEIC.

at Crestwood...

Waukon jumped to a 35-13 lead by halftime, but the Hawks surged back, outscoring the Tribe 17-9 in the third. That, however, was as close as Kee could get as they suffered a 57-40 loss.

Tuesday, Jan. 18 the freshman girls basketball squad suffered a 43-35 loss to Kee.
Peyton Wacker scored ten points to lead the Tribe and Rachel Berns added eight. Kati Nolting and Brianne Sivesind each finished with four points and Kayla Schellhammer chipped in three.
