Talk about it

HETTINGER — The Hettinger-Scranton clinched a trip to the Class B state dual tournament and Region 4’s No. 1 seed on Saturday.

The Night Hawks won all but one match en route to a 67-6 dual win over Beulah-Hazen.

Hettinger-Scranton seniors Codi Tomac and Rodney Vanhoff each won by pin. The Night Hawks added five forfeit wins in the final six matches.
