Gloucester Wrestling Program Shows Grit and Toughness

I’m so proud of the Gloucester wrestling program after tonight. The grit and toughness showed by our kids to outlast a great team like WD just shows how tough we are!! Our HS team followed our match up with a great one of their own. We didn’t get the sweep, but for GHS to come down to the last match against the #1 team in Group 2, and to see the Gloucester kids outwork WD in those 3 period matches was great to see. Big things are coming in the future for the program. Keep sending them to club practices, car pool if you need to, and stick together!!! If we stick together, there are state championships in the near future, i promise!!!

Important Details for This Week’s Youth Wrestling Matches

Couple details for this week. Weds night is Youth night for the HS Match at Home against West Deptford so we’re invited to go to the HS after our match. This Sunday at GHS for Youth program matches is only for K-6 duals team and those 12&under as of Dec 31st (if you turned 13 since Jan then you’re good to wrestle).

If you’re wrestling, please let coach Doc know.

Impressive victory against Haddonfield; practice tomorrow until 4:30.

Great job today. Haddonfield is perennially a top 10 program in our area, and we handled them at the MS and HS level today. A lot of close matches where the Lions proved to be tougher and never stopped wrestling coming out on top with the win. The best part is we did not wrestle our best and still had a lot of good wins. Back to work tomorrow!!

Tomorrow we will practice til 4:30. I’ll let you know Weds match list when we get their roster.

Important Wrestling Updates and Weekend Schedule – Action Needed

Great job today!! The Hammonton and Carusi matches were canceled. I was trying to get Hammonton moved to last Friday but it didn’t work out. Carusi removed us from their schedule bc their league playoffs start a week earlier this year.

We also added Home matches 1/22 vs. Haddonfield and 1/31 vs. Collingswood

Tomorrow – Practice til 4:30
Friday – Away match at Lindenwold 4 pm
Sat – MS challenge 1:45 check in at riverwinds in WD (all 6-8th graders are welcome).
Sun – Lions Youth Match at Collingswood.

Let me know who is wrestling this weekend. I need to know by noon tomorrow or you’re not on the list.
