On December 3rd, at Centennial High School, our wrestling team competed in a tournament called the “Battle of the Boots”. It was a tri-meet with Dixie High School and Centennial’s wrestling rivals, Shadow Ridge High School. To win this tournament, the high school with the most points throughout all matches would take home the trophy. Every match was very exhilarating, with the athletes giving it their all to win.
Centennial fought hard, and it showed with the results. Varsity defeated Shadow Ridge 39-37 and Dixie 48-33. This made Centennial the winner of the Lincoln’s Boots trophy. This tournament has become a tradition, as Centennial and Shadow Ridge have been competing for this trophy every year since 2003!
The wrestling team was thrilled about their victory. Junior, Stephanie Echeverria, who won her match during the tournament said, “We’ve been working for this tournament and we are all so ecstatic our results showed!”
We are all so proud of our wrestling team, and we can’t wait to see what they accomplish next!
