Emma Moore, MVC Writer

The wrestling season started on Monday, October 29th. The season commenced with a tournament on November 17th against Lawrence North.

There are 35 wrestlers competing this season in weight classes that range from the lowest of 106 lbs to a weight class that is everyone over 220lbs.

“I think that we have a good chance to do some great things this season,” said Charlie Moore, 11.

Charlie Moore is a junior who has been a part of the team since freshman year, and has been there to experience what the team can accomplish.

Practices are held every day after school so that the team can prepare for the upcoming meets. The wrestlers have already gone through the trainings of preseason. The preseason involved lots of conditioning and technique work to help the wrestlers prepare for their season, which will end February 18th.

The wrestlers are preparing for a great season, given that last season was successful with a wrestler, Chris Wilkerson, going to state.
