At the JV Invitational tournament at Valhalla High School on Dec. 1, the junior varsity team scored well with Hadi Idriss taking third place, Seth Johnson taking fifth place and Chris Ann taking sixth. That same weekend the varsity squad competed against 29 teams at the Carlsbad Classic. Alec Howell took fifth place while Peter "Pierre" Thomas finished in first place, pinning the 11th ranked wrestler in the state.
