Kerry Fink and the rest of the members of the Luverne-Hills-Beaver Creek-Ellsworth wrestling team experienced a rough pair of outings since Friday.
L-H-BC-E hosted Redwood Valley for a duel in Luverne Friday and took a 49-21 setback.
The Cardinals went to Adrian Tuesday and came up on the short end of a 61-7 decision.
Fink, an H-BC seventh-grader, dropped both of his matches as the team's 103-pounder during the duels.
RWV's Russell Gewerth covered Fink with 25 seconds remaining in the first period of their match.
Adrian's Cody Reverts pinned Fink with 22 seconds remaining in the first period of their match Tuesday.
The losses left L-H-BC-E with a 2-14-1 record heading into tonight's regular-season ending triangular in Luverne.
The Cards will wrestle Jackson County Central at 5:30 p.m. in the Elementary School gym before taking on Minneota at 8:30.
L-H-BC-E will open Section 3A Team competition next Tuesday. The seedings for the tournament have not been announced.
