3rd place overall team score
The Hargrave wrestlers travelled to Fishburne Military Academy Saturday to compete in the annual Virginia Independent Conference tournament. LCA capped off a strong season and easily took home the championship. Going into the final round of competition, the Covenant School was sitting in second with Hargrave in a close third and North Cross right behind in fourth. Despite us going 4-1 against North Cross wrestlers in the final round, they were able to pull ahead to secure 2nd place by a mere 1/2 point. Hargrave finished in 3rd with the Covenant School dropping to 4th.
