Mikey lost his last match as a senior at the state tournament and fell short of placing. It hurts, but I’m proud of his fight and his character. This doesn’t change who he is or what he’s built—just the ending of one chapter.

RECAP: Tough loss last night vs Mitchell HS, but we had some hard fought matches including Charlotte Rosenbaum, who remains undefeated at 6-0.

This past weekend we had our Classic Pioneer Day, wrestling Forbush and winning 41-40. We also celebrated our wrestling alum from Appalachian High School and Watauga High School and notably honored Coaches Steve Britenstein and Lee Stroupe for their contributions to the Watauga Wrestling community.

Thank you to Pam Hughes Clawson for pictures!

Our next event will be the Grayhound Classic this Saturday at Statesville HS, then the Tiger Classic in Chapel Hill on Monday.

Thank you all for your continued support!!
