Competing in a high-level GAC tournament, the boys’ varsity wrestling team took on multiple different schools in the area on Jan. 10. The team had multiple medalists and two GAC champions. Senior Chase Gray, who is a three-time GAC champ, is focusing on the next big tournaments, such as districts, which will take place on Feb. 20 and 21, and then the state tournament, which will take place the last weekend of February.
“My mindset really this whole season, including before big matches, is just like districts and state is what we prepare for, so all the matches leading up to them are learning lessons, ” Gray said. “ I’m really just doing everything I can to prepare for districts and state. I mean, practice is where you get better, and that’s the biggest part, you just have to get into practice thinking like how can I get one percent better.”
The boys’ next tournament will take place in Winnetonka, Kan., and it will start on Jan. 23.
