Varsity A wrestling has two individuals place in weekend tournament

Over the weekend, Forest Hills Central hosted the Kent County Wrestling Championship. This tournament is one of the biggest in the state and the varsity A team was able to have two outstanding individuals place throughout the day.

Wrestling in the 145 lbs weight class, sophomore Isaac Gurley placed fourth. Isaac didn’t only place fourth individually, he also led the team in takedowns with a  total of 13 throughout the day. Isaac was also one of the pin leaders, along with junior Brendan Guitar, both earning three on the day. Sophomore Caden Jacobs also placed, as he took sixth in the 120 lbs weight class. The team as a whole had a total of 58 takedowns and 14 pins.

The wrestling team has had a slower start but carries some standout wrestlers to watch throughout the season. The next wrestling competition will take place on Friday at FHC for the OK White/Black crossover duals.
