SHHS Wrestling

This year, Danny decided to do wrestling again. With COVID, we weren't initially sure there would be a season, but the state set some guidelines (which included only 2 spectators/wrestler most of the season, constant COVID testing for the athletes, etc.) and the season started. It was more abbreviated than last year, but it was at least something "normal". Danny did really well! He made varsity half-way through the season! He is a scrappy wrestler. He doesn't give up easily. Towards the end of the season, he hyper-extended his knee. He was cautious with it but pushed through nonetheless. Unfortunately, his season ended at regionals. He was positioned to be placed at 4th going into state. He just needed to win one last match, but during a take-down, he fell hard on the mat and smacked his head. I was only able to attend one match (due to the fact that someone needed to watch Jonas since only two spectators were allowed), but I was able to get a couple pictures. We're proud of how hard Danny worked this season and how much he is growing in his dedication to the sport. We're hopeful things will go even better next season! Way to go Danny!
