West Wrestling Team

Are you planning on joining the wrestling team? Wait no more! The West Wrestling team is here and is ready to bite back.The West Wrestling team allows both girls and boys. Wrestling is a no-cut sport, which means anyone that wants to can be on the team.

Mr. Smiley states, “We have a wrestling team because we need to balance it out with the high school.” Middle School needed more sports, and the high school has a wrestling team, so wrestling was added to the middle school athletic department.

Every practice they warm up with a series of moves. The head coach, Coach Cushman says, “I’ve been wrestling my whole life and I just really like wrestling.” When someone goes down the coach counts 5 seconds to see if they get back up.

Nov. 2nd was their first meet against Pioneer. West had 7 pins! They’re next meet will be away on November 8th at Liberty Middle School.
