Coach Lay has been promoted from his role as assistant coach and brings with him more than a decade of experience coaching high school soccer in Delaware, working successfully with both boys’ and girls’ programs. On the boys’ side, he earned multiple Blue Hen Flight B conference championships and DIAA state tournament berths, serving with distinction as both an assistant coach and head coach. Most recently, Coach Lay was an assistant at DMA under Coach Cox, where he played a key role in last season’s progress.

The first individual wrestling rankings are here.
The rankings were derived from several sources. Coaches input, last year's finish and competition, matches so far this season, spring and summer regional and national events and in some cases opinion. Some wrestlers may be competing at a higher weight class than posted, that is because we asked coaches where wrestlers projected to compete at for the state tournament, so that's where we ranked them.
Good luck this season. FYI girls rankings coming soon.
