Wrestlers 13th at Districts; Nyamor, Guggenheim qualify for state



 The wrestling team finished 13th at the Southwest District tournament over the weekend at Goshen. It
is their best finish ever in Division II and the best finish in any division since 1991 when they finished 10th.


Three wrestlers placed for the Cowboys. Mikey Gonzalez finished in 6th place. Corbin Guggenheim qualified for the state tournament with a 4th place finish. Aluor Nyamor also qualified for state, finishing in 3rd place. Wyoming has not taken two wrestlers to the state tournament since the 1978-1979 season when Bryn Irvine and Cliff Chang qualified.


Some individual accomplishments took place over the weekend as well. Corbin Guggenheim and Adam Blum each reached 90 career wins. Aluor Nyamor recorded his 60th career win. Mikey Gonzalez moved into second all time reaching 100 wins. He leaves Wyoming with 101 career wins.


The state tournament begins at 4:15 on Thursday at Schottenstein Center at Ohio State.
