Mason Ziegler 72-10, He should get 100 sometime in the postseason
“We are returning a lot of talented wrestlers. We are a small team, so we need to stay healthy, we do not have much depth to our starting lineup. The program is looking to win its seventh straight league title! We placed second in our team districts last year and look to improve on that. A team goal is to place at the Team State tournament. We open our Dual meet season with SOL rival CR South, it should show where we stand as a dual meet team real early in the season! Then travel down the road to Pennridge the following week. We will have a solid tournament team and build a strong tournament schedule: Ex-Calibur @Wyoming Sem, Christmas Classic @Liberty, & Escape the Rock@CR South.”
