Just wanted to reflect on the season of high
school wrestling that we all enjoyed. Seems like
it just started, and now it is over. I am from
Ellsworth and needless to say am very proud of
our wrestlers and the coaching staff and anyone
else who made this season possible. I will take
this time to congratulate the Ellsworth Bearcats
on a fine season filled with many good memories.
As a fan it was exciting to watch this team achieve what it did throughout the year. We had several league champs, I think five or six, several regional individual champs, I think that
number was four, and also a regional team championship, and finally two state champs, two
state runner-ups, a fourth place, and a fifth
place at the state tournament, which many of you
already know helped the team to an awesome showing at the state tournament which resulted
in the team taking state runner-up in 321-a.
There were some heartbreaking losses, but when
you stop and reflect at the whole picture the
Bearcats were overachievers. Look out next year,
the team will still be pretty salty.
