“I was particularly pleased with Steve’s wrestling (he pinned or teched everyone he wrestled today),” the coach said, adding, “He continues to get tougher each week.”

He said he was “happy to see Dan wrestle well after being out of the line up for a week with an minor injury and avenging a loss in the consolation finals.”

“Some of our younger guys (Zach, Ryan, and Jacob) also had terrific performances to end up placing,” he said, adding, “The kids have worked hard all year and things are starting to pay off. I am looking forward to individual districts in Milan.”
