Mount Vernon girls wrestling finished 0-5 at the Linn-Mar Duals on Saturday, Nov. 30, but their biggest foe was the dreaded forfeit.

In losses to bigger schools, the Mustangs had four or five empty weights. That’s 24 or 30 free points.

Mount Vernon lost to Bettendorf (60-24), Dubuque Hempstead (33-32), Iowa City High (42-36), Muscatine (39-24) and Waverly-Shell Rock (48-30).

On the bright side, junior Gracie Pinckney (170) went 4-0 on the day. Freshman Josie Panos (235) picked up three wins. And defending state champ Libby Dix (190) had two wins and three forfeits.
