Tough get even tougher: North Butler team solid

HAMPTON – North Butler’s wrestling team was strong before and it got even more so with the return of its Class 1A No. 7-ranked senior 160-pounder Dalton Nelson.
Nelson returned after sitting the first half of the season while recovering from a broken ankle.
What is scary is the fact that North Butler head coach says he is only going to get better.
“He’s got a ways to go,” Smith said. “He looked better today than he did Saturday (at Forest City). He did (earn outstanding wrestler at Forest City) but I think he looked even better than he did before he broke the ankle so yeah, he’s doing a good job.”
