Huge loss for the wrestling community yesterday. North High heavyweight wrestler and football player Wyatt Burch passed away unexpectedly. When the Shafter wrestling team was hit with tragedy, the North High program stepped up and showed their support and proved that the wrestling community in Bakersfield is one big family. Now it is our time to show our support for North High wrestling and Wyatt’s family. There has been a go fund me page created to help the family pay for the funeral and anything else during this difficult time. They are already more than halfway towards their goal. Let’s help them get there!

The off season is underway for GWC! This past weekend the club was in Fresno for the CAUSAW Folkstyle State Championships. After two long days of wrestling, the club earned two medals! Sophomore James House led the way with a 5th Place finish at 220lbs. Freshman Tony Ayon impressed with a 6th Place finish at 94lbs after bumping up a weight class! Overall, it was a great start to the club season. Now on to Freestyle!

The dual last night lived up to the hype. It was an intense dual that lasted until the end, but the varsity team lost to Wasco 37-25. Not the result the team wanted, but the season is not over. The JV team will wrestle in the SSL Championships tomorrow as our varsity wrestlers prepare for the postseason. The highlight of the night was the Wasco wrestling community taking a moment to honor our very own Nick Garza who is continuing to fight cancer, and his father who was there to accept the honorary plaque that was made for Nick. Thank you to everyone who was involved in honoring Nick. Last night was about two teams leaving it all on the line for an SSL Championship, but also a reminder that some things in life are bigger than wrestling. It was awesome to see two rivals come together and show support for each other.
