Warden 40, Connell 33

CONNELL — Warden head coach Brent Cox felt a little nostalgic after Warden’s dual with Connell.

A dormant rivalry was reignited Thursday as Warden outlasted Connell 40-33.

“It took me back to the 90s,” he said.

The Cougars adjusted their lineup to best match up with the Eagles and it paid dividends. A key decision came at 126 pounds when Warden’s Edgar Hernandez won by technical fall over Mason Holst 20-4.
