Springfield's Wrestlers Making Waves

Springfield's Wrestlers Making Waves

posted Wednesday, February 13, 2019

The Junior High and High School wrestlers are making great strides and powering through the tournament season! On January 26, the team hit the mats at Vergennes HS. Skylar Wallace and Brandon Bennett each nailed the first-place spot, and Donavin Sprano brought home a bronze for third place. The junior high team saw some arms raised in victory that day, including a third-place win by Trenton Rumrill and a champ spot on the podium for newcomer Ayden Smith.

On February 2nd, the team descended upon Mt Mansfield HS in Jericho, Vermont for more action: six varsity wrestlers and six JH wrestlers competed against teams from VT, NH, and NY to bring home several very respectable and hard-won 2nd and 3rd place wins. The varsity team heads to Fair Haven, Vermont on February 9 for a Marble Valley League tournament; stay tuned for more updates and live videos at the team's Facebook page www.facebook.com/SpfldVTWrestling/.
