Dear wrestling familia, 

Over the weekend we had eight wrestlers compete at the New York State Freestyle and Greco-Roman Championships. The top three wrestlers in this tournament will get the opportunity to represent New York State in Fargo North Dakota for the nationals and for our Schoolboys wrestlers the opportunity to represent New York at the Schoolboys National Duals in Indianapolis in June.

Congratulations to the following wrestlers who placed at the NYS Freestyle Wrestling Championships:

Dunia Sibomana 1st  Raymond Adams 1st  Brody Franklin 2nd  Mathew Diamond 2nd  Gregory Walpole 4th Freedom Excel 4th Chase Morris 4th

Thank you very much to all the parents who made the commitment to travel this past weekend and of course our amazing wrestlers who continue to care to get better. Parents remember that "we can ONLY help your wrestlers if we see them"

June 9th we will be having our Annual Long Beach Wrestling Program awards dinner. ALL wrestlers and parents should attend! We will be honoring the Recreation program, The Gladiators, Middle School and High School wrestlers. If you are attending the awards/dinner please text me at 516-978-6847!

Thank you very much to the following sponsors:

We also will need a group of volunteers that can help us decorate the place and get it ready for the night. We know that Lindell has their graduation that day and that MS lacrosse and Track & Field have events that day but please be there as soon as you can.
