Friday Varsity Team
Due to the fact that this was a school day a incomplete and fresh Varsity Team traveled to Watsonville to take on all challengers. Victorious in only 1 of 4 matches, the Chargers left the mat bruised but gaining great mat experience against tough opponents from outside of our region. In the first match we beat Greenfield 46-24, then lost to Holliser 30-52, lost to Watsonville 21-51, and in a tragic defeat lost by criteria to Carmel, for the second year in a row, by 3 pins to 4 pins.
Saturday Varsity Individual
Returning before dawn the next day the Chargers braved a 13 hour tournament against 38 teams. Despite being victorious in his first match Kevin Choi had to withdraw from the tournament with a pulled hamstring. Kevin Wu, Jack Loumena, Darren Hsu, Eddie Baumel, Tom Boisvert, Josh Pederson, and Chris Ezaz wrestled very well but were ultimately eliminated from the tournament. Calvin Legassick went 2-2 with great pins over Mills and Pajaro Valley but missed the medal stand. Nick Lee placed 4th with slamming throws and lots of hand and head fighting. Maurice "Waffles" Alexander earned the bronze medal losing only to the same wrestler as in the last tournament (his only two defeats). Coach is very proud of all those who competed and wishes give a special thanks to Mrs. Noftz and the parents who brought food and came out to support the team.
