REGION 2B WRESTLING TOURNAMENT MOVED TO SALEM

The 2021 Region 2B Wrestling Tournament has been moved from Freeman Public to the McCook Central gymnasium in Salem, region officials announced on Tuesday. The change in location comes because the South Dakota High School Activities Association is requiring a reduction in fan attendance by 50%, said Freeman Athletic Director Kristina Sage. Because McCook Central’s gym is larger than Freeman’s — which has a capacity of just under 1,000 — more fans will be able to attend.

This year’s region tournament will be held Saturday, Feb. 20.

Freeman Public will host the tournament in 2022.
