“The boys wrestled well,” states wrestler Jordyn S, ”there were some really tough matches, but they fought all the way through. We had some wins and some losses, and there are things we need to work on, but we are doing pretty well for what small of a team we have.”
Collin D, had a win by pin and James K, had a win by points, taking down an undefeated Class C ranked wrestler 10-6. Jace T also took a win by forfeit. The boys team lost by 15-63.

“Great effort from boys and girls, make sure to come out and support the wrestlers!” says Ava W.
