Dexter wrestlers and coaches were given a big send off at Dexter High School Tuesday afternoon. The group is leaving Wednesday morning for the state wrestling tournament in Columbia. The DHS Marching Bearcats lead the group through the halls of the school to the applause from fellow students and staff. The band played the school fight song as they walked through the halls.
