High School Wrestling Studs!

Congratulations to the following wrestlers who claimed All-State honors by placing in the top 8 in their respective weight classes this past weekend at Mat Classic XXI (High School State Wrestling Championships) at the Tacoma Dome.  These guys spent time training with Reality Sports at some point during the past year, either in our fall pre-season workouts or in freestyle last spring.  What a great accomplishment, guys!
