It was “Party Time” last week at Mizzou Arena as I watched the Cassville wrestlers kick some tail at state. I don’t care what the old fogies say around here — these kids aren’t snowflakes! From bloody noses to dislocated shoulders to emotional losses, Cassville wrestlers bounce back faster than the strap on this party hat they gave me. Way to wrestle, Cassville. Can’t wait to make the trip again in 2024!
