EHS Competes in Carbondale Murdale Tournament

CARBONDALE -- Effingham High School competed in the Murdale Wrestling Tournament Saturday.

"We went into the tournament missing a few of our normally filled weight classes but the kids did not let that distract their efforts," said EHS Coach Cody Harpster. "All of the wrestlers put forth the effort today. Travis Durbin, a sophomore, took third place."

The Hearts will be back in action Wednesday at Charleston.
