Indians finish strong in win over Providence

MINOOKA — Back in the 1980s and '90s, if you mentioned high school wrestling, you had to mention Providence. The Celtics set the standard for excellence in the state, and their name still carries a certain cache.

Flash forward to the 2000's and early 2010's, and one of the schools that enters the conversation is Minooka. The Indians have won four straight sectional titles and seven in the last nine years, highlighted by a team state championship in 2009-10.

The two storied programs met on the mat Friday night and, what was a back-and-forth affair early turned into a rout as Minooka came away with a 50-15 victory.
