“We showed up ready to wrestle, and did a really good job controlling our matches for the most part,” Gore coach Matt Hawkins said. “Fundamentally, we showed a lot of improvement, and that helped put us in position to bring home a few medals. I’m really proud of the hard work these guys have been putting in.”
Only one Pirate medaled in the junior-high portion of the tournament as Jayden Gates placed third.
The Pirates will take the Christmas break off and return to action in the Hilldale Tournament,which will take place Jan. 5-6.
