Tigers Build at VISAA Duals!

The Hargrave Tigers Wrestling team had the opportunity to take part in the VISAA State Duals at Fishburne Military School last weekend. Check out this recap below from Coach Madine!

This past Saturday, the Varsity Wrestling team traveled to Fishburne Military School to compete in the VISAA State Duals.We were seeded in Pool A with three strong teams, which consisted of Fishburne, Bishop Ireton and St.Stephens. Against Fishburne, Charles Meyers received a forfeit in113 weight class, and we continued with a pin at 120 with Grayson Andrews. Carson Barrett had a hard fought battle at 126 against but to no avail he was ultimately defeated by a pin. We bounced back at 132 with a pin from Riley DeStasio. After this match the team fought valiantly but were unfortunately unable to secure any further victories against Fishburne. Against the following two competitors our team was victorious securing wins of 42-36 against both Bishop Ireton and St. Stephens which landed us a second place finish in pool A.

This placement moved us to the crossover round against Woodberry Forest, where we were defeated 60-21. Hargrave finished 8th overall in the tournament. Throughout the meet the guys continuously showed improvement and fought with tenacity and Tiger Pride!
