WHS Wrestling: On the road to states

by: Lauren Cholewa 


The Wethersfield High School wrestling team has had a remarkable season this year. The team is closing out the season with their last home meet on Wednesday, February 5th, 2020.
 
Throughout the season, there have been many struggles individually for the wrestlers but it becomes apparent that it has changed them for the better.

 “I feel that it prepares you for life and teaches you to handle adversity,” said Jacob Buser, WHS wrestler.

Ready to close out the season, the wrestlers had reflected back onto the season and had some things to mention. 

Although it is hard work, some of the Wethersfield wrestlers or not more people should wrestle. Jacob Buser said, “Definitely, once you wrestle, everything else in life is easier.”  

Nicholas Thompson, another member of the team, said “Yes it helps your body out a lot and builds more character than any other sport.”

As the season comes to an end with the last home meet against Manchester and the last away meet against Avon, everyone will see who rises to the occasion for the chance to wrestle at state opens in New Haven.
