MSMS Wrestling - Mississippi School for Math & Science

We’re excited to be hosting the 2026 Tsunami Wrestling Camp here on the MSMS campus this week!

We’ve had a great turnout of wrestlers from across the region, and the energy, effort, and attitude they’ve brought to camp have been outstanding. Campers have spent the last day and a half learning new techniques, competing in live situations, building friendships, and challenging themselves on and off the mat.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to showcase our campus, our wrestling program, and the sport we love. Looking forward to finishing camp strong and seeing these athletes continue to grow.

🌊 Nationals Update 🌊

Enoch Clardy and Nina Weinstein battled their way into day two at NHSCA High School Nationals before falling short today.

We are incredibly proud of the growth they showed this season and throughout the offseason. They stepped onto one of the biggest stages in the country and competed.

One thing wrestling teaches better than anything else is that it can be brutal. It is hard, unforgiving, and sometimes the lessons come fast. The sport has a way of exposing every weakness, every hesitation, and every place you still need to grow.

But that is also what makes wrestling so special.

Every tough match, every setback, every loss, and every hard lesson is an opportunity to improve. The wrestlers willing to embrace those moments are the ones who continue to separate themselves.

Growth matters. Even when you cannot see it yourself, everyone around you can. The confidence, toughness, discipline, and grit built through this sport carries over far beyond the wrestling room.

Enoch and Nina have grown tremendously, not just as wrestlers, but as people. They represented themselves, their families, and Mississippi wrestling with pride on one of the biggest stages in the country.

This is far from the end of their story. The future is bright. 🌊🤼
