I didn’t realize this match was happening, so I tried putting things together before the match started, but I did have practice from 6-7:30 and missed most of the match. Thankful Dundee Wrestling Club runs a live stream and I was able to rewatch the dual. The results are also posted on trackwrestling.
I jumped in during the second period of the Chinavare match. But will type it as I rewatch the match on the Dundee Wrestling Live Stream Replay.
Before action starts, the crowd is treated to some youth matches between the up and coming stars of each of these storied programs. These events are always great for the youth and keep them invested and connected to the communal aspect of wrestling. After that, there is some recognition of the Dundee Seniors. 4 years of battle with one of the toughest schedules in the state deserves some serious recognition.
