Matmen Persevere

From Coach Pitman

The wrestling team has had some hard losses the last 2 weeks.  Last week they lost to # 4 Bethel Tate and #7 Wilmington at home.  On Wednesday, they spilt with Hughes (win) and Goshen (loss).
Their current 2012-2013 Dual Record is 5-8. Congratulation to Jena Robison who recorded her first win of her career with a pin over the 120 pounder of Hughes. The Wyoming matmen travel to Reading on Friday and Saturday to wrestle in the Charlie Moore Reading Invitational.  Next week they will host the 10th annual Wyoming Duals on the 19th of January.
