Weight Watchers Weight was the key word for this year's Eagle wrestlers. Every day, hour, and minute was spent watching the scales. Hours of practice consumed their time, sweating every ounce of fat from their bodies, but it was well worth it. The Eagle s overall record was 7-8, with team leaders such as Jamie Young 21-0, Bob Wise 14-7, and Deven Dittrich 18-3-2. The Eagle wrestlers celebrated victorious moments such as the outstanding win over Hickory, 29-27. Likewise, disappointments, such as the Greenville loss 35-19, appeared occasionally throughout the season. We were very pleased with the season because of the success of the young wrestlers ' stated Mr. Ruley. And because of their success, we hope to improve next year's record to 10 wins. Dedication and hard work, which were demonstrated throughout the season, were in the minds of all these young wrestlers. DEVEN DITRICH MENTALLY prepared himself for another battle and victory. Me ended the season with a 18-3-2 overall record. SOPHOMORE CMRIS ALESSIO works hard for the pin. With two years ahead of him, he looks forward to a rewarding season. NICK POM PA STRUGGLES to regain the advantage over his opponent. Nick was one of the two Junior starters. ..SPORTS ANOTHER VICTORY! THOSE famous words were said every match as Jamie Young completed an undefeated season.
