Celebrating Senior Night, Elizabeth Forward’s veteran grapplers helped their team close out the team wrestling season with a dominating performance.
Four of the five EF seniors won by pinfall in a 53-18 throttling of Gateway Wednesday night.
Ryan Michaels and Nick Hunnell earned first period pins at 126 and 170 pounds, respectively, for EF. Noah Hunnell (22-11) and Ethan Cain (29-5) got their pins in the second period at 152 and 182 pounds. Classmate Luke Nolder was the only senior not to earn a win but he is a first-year grappler.
