A short-handed bunch of Dutch took on two large Class 3A schools to start the season, and fell in a triangular to Urbandale and West Des Moines Valley Thursday evening in boys wrestling action. Without some of their top competitors, including Peyton Ritzert, TR Putz, Logan Bruxvoort, or Noah Parsons, Pella was edged 40-38 by the hosting J-Hawks and couldn’t keep pace in a 72-8 dual with ranked Valley. Damion Clark (132) and Jackson Van Kley (170) were the lone Dutch grapplers with a pair of individual wins. Pella is next in action Saturday at the Williamsburg Invitational.
