BREAKING: St. Michael-Albertville Earns Tenth Title, Wrestles to Redemption

The Knights never looked vulnerable, earning more than 40 points in all three dual wins on the way to earning back its crown.

February 29, 2024 By Mike Schoemer

It wasn’t news to anyone that St. Michael-Albertville wrestling was on a mission.

From quiet beginnings back in December to a hype video with the painful memory of dropping the title by one point released just this week, the Knights were a on a road to redemption.

That road, and that mission, is complete.

STMA trailed for all of about 4 minutes – in a semifinal dual with Shakopee when it lost the first match of the afternoon session. After that – and after Hastings (last year’s Cinderella) failed to even make it to the championship bracket to defend its title – the only thing left was the shouting.

Here’s a look at the carnage:
