We had an unforgettable two days at the State Tournament, bringing home a 4th Place State Team Trophy, the highest team finish in Mountainside Wrestling history and the first time bringing home a State Trophy for our program.
Every single wrestler competed and battled in each and every match and contributed to our overall team score. As we’ve said all season, our depth showed and it was a total team effort. We would not have finished where we did without everyone on this team contributing and battling in every match.
Top 4 Teams: Newberg 245, West Linn 187, Forest Grove 131.5, Mountainside 116
State Tournament Placers:
1st Place & STATE CHAMPION ISAAC CONNER 150 & Outstanding Wrestler
As a team, we finished with 23 District Placers (A new school record), crowned 4 District Champions, and qualified 16 wrestlers for the State Tournament. It is a direct reflection of the time, effort, and dedication our wrestlers have invested all season.
This has truly been a special group. The commitment, work ethic, and buy in from our entire team have been outstanding from day one. We have talked all year about the depth of this team, and it was incredibly rewarding to see that depth on full display at the tournament. It was a total team effort, with contributions coming from every part of our lineup.
District Tournament Team Scores(Metro League District Tournament Champions!): Mountainside 421.5, Aloha 298.5, Westview 231, Sunset 195, Beaverton 179.5, Southridge 163.5
The boys then traveled to Redmond last weekend and competed in the Oregon Wrestling Classic, which is the unofficial dual meet championship in Oregon. As a team we placed 3rd and finished 4-2 on the weekend. We are really proud of the group and how we wrestled and responded throughout the weekend!
Oregon Wrestling Classic Duals: Place 3rd out of 16 Teams
We had a great couple of days of competition during the second week of Winter Break. Both boys and girls competed at the Pac Coast Wrestling Tournament at the Clark County Events Center on Monday and Tuesday. We ran into really good competition with both groups. Our boys performed well and had big contributions from everyone, finishing with 3 overall placers, Isaac Conner, Jonas Stock and Ethan Stock, and we had a couple that were very close to placing as well. The girls battled tough and came away with one placer in Violet Baxter!
We had a great day of wrestling on the first day of Winter Break. Our boys team won the tournament with 15 overall placers, and our girls had three placers as well. It was especially great to provide many of our wrestlers with their first varsity experience of the year.
The Mountainside Boys competed at the Army Strong Coast Classic over the weekend (12/12-12/13). The Varsity team finished in 5th place out of 37 teams with 5 placers overall while the JV team finished in 7th place out of 33 teams with 5 placers overall. Below are the results:
