Cobras top Tigers

The Windom-Mt. Lake wrestling team built a commanding lead to move on in the Section 3A team tournament, as the sixth-seeded Cobras topped 11th-seeded Springfield 50-27 Tuesday at Windom.

The Cobras won the first seven weight classes with four falls, a major decision and two forfeits. Springfield mounted a late rally, but a major decision and a forfeit in the upper weights sealed the win for the Cobras.
