SPOKANE VALLEY - Kyle Sweedman placed second at 174 pounds for the North Idaho College wrestling team at the Spokane Open on Sunday at the HUB Sports Center.

Derrick Booth (141) and W.V. Meyer (165) each placed sixth for the Cardinals.

Brock Banta, wrestling unattached as he is redshirting at NIC this season, took second at 133.

"I think we wrestled pretty well, expecially the younger guys," NIC coach Pat Whitcomb said. "We have quite a few of our starters out with nicks and owies ... the guys that needed to get more matches did."

NIC returns to action Dec. 2-3 at the Las Vegas Invitational.
