Thank you to everyone that helped make my first year as Hagerty High School’s Head Wrestling Coach a special year. These young men worked very hard and accomplished many great things this season. Parents, you should be very proud of the hard work these boys put in. To the parents, thank you for all of your help and support this year. our successes would not have been possible if it weren’t for you.
Here is a recap of all that was accomplished during the 2015-16 season. I look forward to a great off season and many great years at Hagerty.
