Team Sectionals Preview

For the third year in a row, Sparta will be wrestling in the division two team sectionals and once again, it appears as if it will be Lodi that will be the team to beat if the Spartans want to make their first-ever trip to team state as a division two team. Sparta should be favored in their opening dual against Evansville/Albany and Lodi should be favored in their dual against River Valley, which sets up what looks to be a pretty close dual between the Blue Devils and the Spartans for the third year in a row. The Spartans will be looking to end Lodi’s 10 straight trips to the state team tournament.

Below are some previews for Lodi and Evansville/Albany. We’ll examine each wrestler, if they wrestled any guys that Sparta wrestled and what their record coming into Tuesday night’s duals are. Let’s begin with Evansville/Albany.
