During the week of 7/7, the Cougars travelled to ol’ Lewisburg, PA to compete in the annual Bison System team competition camp held at Bucknell University. By the end of the campaign at Gerhard Fieldhouse, our grapplers finished 10-1, falling only to Voorhees NJ in the final, 34-36. We were the only team in the competition to have a pure team, or all participants from one high school. Wade Cummings (132) and Billy McGinley (220) went 11-0 on the week, while Nik Zimmerman (126), James Meyer (160), Owen Morris (195), and Alec Horne (170) all finished 9-2. Austin Lillis (138) and Chris Harootunian (HWT) went 8-3 to cap off successful runs. Congrats to the team for a great Summer performance and for getting to learn wrestling from some of the best such as Quentin Wright, Ricky Bonomo, and Frank “The Tank” Molinaro, who share 6 NCAA titles between them. Have a wonderful “rest of the Summer,” and continue to work towards your goals!
