Coach’s Comments:

This was an awesome day to be a Bulldog! Our team finished 3rd overall.

We were 3 Team points shy of a 1st Place Trophy.

That goes to show you how well our wrestlers competed and fought to get some wins. We also had 6 individual Champions, 4 who took 2nd, and 4 who took 3rd.

It was a very long day of wrestling and most of our wrestlers had 5 matches each.

Most of our wrestlers have never been to a tournament before but they responded very well and they had a lot of fun.

The Mexico Wrestling staff is very proud of each of our wrestlers.

Next Match date and time 12/11/19 At MMA at 6:00 PM
