Wrestling: placed 11th at this past weekend’s Northern Regional Wrestling Tournament held at Hayfield Secondary School. The Wildcats put one wrestler in the finals and had two in the consolation finals. Senior Ryan Sepulveda made it to the finals of the 170-pound weight class before running into Mount Vernon’s Dusty Floyd; a hard fought match between these two ended with Floyd taking the Regional title. Losing a tough match in the quarter finals, David Chenevey dominated his way back through the consolations to earn himself his first trip to the VHSL Championships.
Disappointed from his semi-final showing, Joey Steinbach bounced back with an impressive 8-4 demolition of Robinson’s Andre Kendall to earn his State birth. For two of the three Wildcats, this will be their final high school competition: Co-Captains Sepulveda and Chenevey hope to end their high school wrestling careers atop the VHSL podium. Junior Joey Steinbach also hopes to earn some hardware. The State Tournament will be held this Friday and Saturday, February 17-18, at Robinson Secondary School. Wrestling will begin at 10 a.m. Friday and conclude Saturday evening.
