FORT KENT — The wins continue to pile up for the Caribou wrestling team as the Vikings improved to 13-4 on the season with a pair of wins Saturday. Caribou beat Ellsworth 43-30 and defeated Mount Desert Island 72-12 in a meet held in Fort Kent. “Ellsworth is a good team and we matched up pretty well,” Caribou coach Todd Albert said. “Michael Selander, Dustin Green, Brendan Wood, Kenny Griffeth, Lance Jandreau and Andrew Adams each had two wins.”
The coach added Selander made weight for the 103 pound class, which should make him much more difficult to beat.
“Dustin Green and Lance Jandreau have been wrestling well and it shows,” the coach said. “Andrew Adams has been a light heavyweight all year and we will probably slot him in the 215 pound class. We have been making good progress and just need to keep working hard and improving.”

103 pounds — Selander (12-7, 1 pin) beat Gina Southivong 15-2; and pinned Jonathan Sargent, MDI, at 2:25.
