▪ Wrestling is a great sport for helping our youth develop self confidence,
build character, gain discipline and greatly strengthen a will to succeed in life!!
The physical and mental skills that wrestling demands, as well as the many sacrifices...
will ultimately benefit our youth well into the future!
Parents play a crucial role in the success of wrestling, as their total support
and positive attitude, whether after winning or losing,
is an integral part in the development of their children and the sport.
THERE IS NO TOUGHER SPORT IN THE WORLD

West York Elementary Wrestling Update
2/29/08  by Coach Chad Gardner & Coach Chad Toomey

Last weekend - we had 32 WY Elementary Wrestling competitors at our season
ending league tourney.  The WY Elementary Coaching Staff was extremely pleased
with our overall performance!  We had 7 medalists (top 4) and many GREAT bouts!
Due to our overall inexperience, we had many pigtail matches.  We were successful
in most of the pigtail matches, but you pick up a top "4" seed in the next match! We
had a number of kids lose tough matches!  For example, N. Townsley lost a very
close bout in the quarterfinals to the eventual champion!  Gavin Toomey lost 7-4
to the eventual champion.  A. Hagen lost in overtime!  Tim Fiorenza lost 10-4 to
a real stud and wrestled his best match of the year! Sam Flemmens lost 9-4 to the
eventual champ.  We, as coaches, were VERY PROUD of our WY Elem. wrestlers.
With some backing and some hard work...WE will get West York Wrestling back!

Here are our medalists from the 2008 York County League Tourney
Alex Raffensberger - 3rd
Tyler Seiffert - 3rd
Ryan Narber - 3rd
Kevin Duckett - 3rd
Sam Sterner - 4th
Cody Hopta - 4th
Kyle Narber - 4th
