Outlook: “For the second year in a row, CB West will only have two seniors on their roster and will look for some leadership from several of the younger wrestlers.  When you are relying on youth, there is a little uncertainty, but our team expectations are to mature and to keep striving for excellence. 
“West will still have a couple of holes (forfeits) in their line-up, so giving up a few team points going into each match will be normal.  Wrestlers will focus on one match at a time and will always be looking to score (pin) when the opportunity is presented to them.”
