Although the I V's seasonal record of 6 wins and 6 losses may not sound too impressive, the team did very well considering the lack of wrestlers to fill certain positions and the tough competition. Our team is still young and we hope that it will continue to grow in the years to come. . ... , - WHEN Va,.Aj
