The Redhawk wrestlers will defend their Northern Vermont Athletic Conference (NVAC) wrestling championship title at Champlain Valley Union (CVU) High School on Saturday, Feb. 14.
CVU will play host to 100 plus high school wrestlers from Essex, Middlebury, Mount Mansfield Union (MMU), St. Johnsbury, Spaulding, Vergennes, Harwood, Lake Region, Milton, Mount Abraham, Randolph and Williamstown, for one of the largest tournaments that the high school has hosted in recent history. Last year, fourth seeded Champlain Valley walked away with the trophy, defeating Vergennes and Saint Johnsbury in the early rounds. The team met MMU in the finals, and after several grueling matches, CVU came home with their first ever NVAC championship trophy with a 48-32 win.
With a solid group of wrestlers, head wrestling coach Gunnar Olson hopes to come out on top again this year. Plan to attend and support the boys in red by filling the stands with cheering CVU fans. Admission is $5 adults, $3 students, and 5 and under are free. Wrestling begins at 10:30am in the main gym.
