The Wellington High School wrestling team captured the South Beach Duals tournament championship today finishing a perfect 8-0 for the two day event improving their season record to 22-3.
Sophomore 126 pounder James Marvel led the way being the lone undefeated wrestler for the Wolverines.
It was a fantastic turn around for us from last year at this tournament, when we finished 2-5 and lost to Palmetto Ridge 66-9. We got a rematch with Palmetto Ridge this year in the finals, so that was a great win to end on!
