place allowed the team to bring home RCHS' first ever wrestling trophy.

The team dominated the higher weights, capturing first place individual honors at 189 (Jeff Scroggins), 215 (Jeremy Graves), and 275 (Henry Robertson). Eric Norman (215) took second place honors in that weight class. The other end of the team did a good job as well.

Jonathan Robinson took second and Max Haynes took third at 103 lbs. Bren Miller at 130 and Stuart Hensley at 135 captured second place finishes. The tournament gave several wrestlers their first opportunities at this level of competition. Jonathan Bankston at 112, Andy Propst at 152, and Josh Sager at 160 all scored victories. When the bus hit the school parking lot Saturday night after a long hard day and four matches per man, there was a proud and happy group of young men who got off carrying a nice trophy into the gym, which they proudly presented to the Athletic Director — our first wrestling trophy!
