This was the last week of the middle school wrestling season and the team finished their final dual strong with wins over Jackson Parkside (34 – 22) and Lansing Waverly (29 – 15).
On Saturday, 3/16, only 8 of 19 team members were able to complete in the Mid-Michigan Wrestling Championships at Mason High School. Even though we were small in numbers, 6 of the 8 wrestlers placed and all wrestled tough. Placing wrestlers were,
2nd Place- Jerome Travis (110 lb), Joey Mahaney (130 lb), Cooper Keener (137 lb), Luke Chambers (185 lb)
4th Place– Korey Miller (145 lb)
6th Place– Travis Genske (120 lb)
Breakout performance of the day goes to Cooper Keener! Cooper was unseeded and pinned his way into the finals while beating the #2 and #3 seeds in the tournament before losing a tough match to the #1 seeded wrestler.
On the season, the Middle School team was 10-2 overall. Congratulate all of the wrestlers on a great 2018-2019 season! Please check on our team page on the website to see all of the season accomplishments.
Fantastic effort! Keep up the good work!
