Outlook: “We are returning a lot of talented wrestlers. The program is looking to win its sixth straight league title! We placed fourth 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! We have added the Mid-Winter Mayhein tourn @IUP Jan 8-9. It will be fun to travel west and see some WPIAL teams. We will have a solid tournament team and build a strong tournament schedule: Ex-Calibur @Wyoming Sem, Christmas Classic @Liberty, Mayheim, and Escape the Rock@CR South.
“Our returning state placers and qualifiers; Mason Zielger 7th, Zach Borzio and Fred Retter look to return to the State tournament. Incoming Freshman Collin Gaj comes in nationally ranked and we are excited to see him turn some heads this year!”
