Last Friday and Saturday, the wrestling team participated in the CVC championship; this tournament took place at Cuyahoga Heights High School.
Three out of the eight wrestlers on the team participated in this tournament. The wrestlers for this event were senior captain Eric Khay, freshman Joe Dennis, and freshman Tyler Kebbel.
Schools involved in the tournament included Beachwood, Berkshire, Cardinal, Chagrin Falls, Cuyahoga Heights, Edgewood, Geneva, Grand Valley, Harvey, Hawken, Independence, Kirtland, Lakeside, Orange, Perry, Lutheran West, Trinity, West Geauga, and Wickliffe.
Dennis started out Friday night with a 9-2 loss.
After that match, Khay showed outstanding effort and technique during his bout leading 9-2, but unfortunately, he got pinned in the last minute to lose. He quickly recovered, though, with a 4-0 win later in the evening.
Kebbel then started off with a 10-3 loss, but similar to Khay, won his second match 10-1.
On Saturday, Dennis, Kebbel, and Khay continued their participation.
Dennis started off with a 12-2 loss. Then, Khay had an outstanding 17-2 win. However, Kebbel lost by getting pinned.
Khay was the Hurricanes last hope, but his tournament ended with a 12-0 loss.
The two-day tournament resulted in some positive moments, and the Hurricanes look to take some confidence into the sectionals and districts.
You can help support your wrestling team by cheering them on at a tri-meet at Valley Forge High School on February 20 at 6:00 p.m.
