Minnesota West's wrestling team traveled to St. John's University this past weekend to close out the regular season. Ty Borge was able to put the Bluejays on the board after collecting a forfeit at 149 pounds, but St. John's ultimately won the dual 43-6.

 

The Bluejays will now have a couple weeks to prepare for the NJCAA Region 13 National Qualifier on Feb. 18, hosted by Rochester Community and Technical College.
