Wrestling

Jack Niesse, Staff Writer

As winter sports are in full swing, one sport gets swept under the mat, wrestling. Co-Captains Addison Haly and Campbell Long are a combined 15-6 on the year.  The captains help push the team to move in 3 ways: Forward, Forward, and Forward. Campbell Garrard being a great example of that being 6-2 on the season. With only 7  people on the team it allows for coach Ruiz to give very individualized instruction. The young 4 of Smalley, Beall, Lesesne, and Lemon are a combined 14-19.  With coach’s help they will continue to grow and get better ,as they all have at least two more years to master their skills and take people to “Stick City”.  With the season more than halfway complete the team holds the record of 2-5, but are hopeful of winning out. The team is always thinking one step ahead. The team lives by the saying,” Wrestling is a lifestyle, not a sport”.
