Imperial Beach, CA — The Cougar varsity team took to the mats for the first time in the 2021-22 wrestling season. We brought a total of 9 wrestlers, only 3 wrestlers have had a full season of varsity experience under their belt. Despite not having much experience, the team showed that they are willing to fight in every match and just need more practice time to really turn a corner and become dangerous wrestlers. Ours placers this week: 133 - Anthony Solis 4th 146 - Daniel Felix 4th 183 - Isaac Zavala. Both Liam Baker (10th) at 121lbs and Jovanny Garcia (11th) at heavyweight finished 2-2 on the day 1 match away from medaling despite this being their very first wrestling match. I am extremely excited by what I saw this weekend and look forward to getting back into the room Monday to fine tune our wrestling skills.
