“These young wrestlers are really fun to watch,” said S-C assistant coach Mike Pomajzl. “They have shown such great improvement in their wrestling styles and abilities. The exciting thing is that they keep on learning and trying new things. They work hard in practice, improving their skill level, conditioning, and skill level and that shows up on the mat.”
