Dan Willaert, Head Coach
January 10, 2017
On Thursday, January 5, the Cretin-Derham Hall Wrestling Team hosted a TakeDown Cancer event at their inaugural Meet in the Middle match in the Joe Mauer Field House. The Raiders hosted #5 ranked St. Francis, wrestling Varsity and Junior Varsity at the same time on two mats. Then the feature match of the evening was a dual meet between NCAA Division III St. John’s University and St. Olaf College.
The gym was packed to see some great wrestling action and raise money for a terrific cause. The final amount of nearly $400 will be donated to The Randy Shaver Cancer Research and Community Fund in memory of Rebecca Leifeld, mother of Assistant Coach Matt Leifeld, who passed away last summer.
