"Where we started at the beginning of the year, to the end of the year now-we're a whole different team". Don Bosco will have four wrestlers compete in tomorrow's championship-including Mack Ortner, the son of head coach Chris Ortner.

Two Knaack boys - Kaiden (left) and Kyler (right) - from Don Bosco are headed to the state finals. You're not seeing double (though the brothers don't really look alike), both celebrated their wins by acknowledging the huge Don Bosco crowd. The Dons send four to the finals.

Don Bosco is on top of the 1A wrestling world for the 5th straight season, thanks to guys like Kyler Knaack™ who claimed the 152 title to cap off his sophomore season.

Brothers Kyler and Kaiden Knaack earned a pair of state titles for Don Bosco, along with Dawson Youngblut. But while the Knaacks are brothers by blood, they say the key to team success is having a team full of "brothers." They should know. The Dons just won their 16th team title

The Knaack brothers are 2/3 of 2024's Don Bosco state champions. Kyler Knaack™ leaves the mat with a kiss and a second State title... while Kaiden Knaack ends his career with a win and a spike.
