Loy Norrix Wrestling takes Battle Creek Lakeview to the Mat

Mia May
February 2, 2018

The Loy Norrix crowd is small but supportive. There’s a small team on one side, warming up for a tough match. There’s a small buzz of excitement about the Loy Norrix wrestling team going around.
The team has a record of 3 wins and 7 losses so far this season. The team only has 17 wrestlers, almost every other wrestling team has two times that many, and wrestlers are on and off the bench due to injuries and grades. This may bring the team down on the scoreboard.
The wrestling season is 3-4 months long and requires 6 dedicated days a week of practice, meets and tournaments. The Norrix wrestling team most recently wrestled against Battle Creek Lakeview.
