2022-2023 Wrestling Season

Registration for the 2022-2023 wrestling season will be available by November 1st. More detailed information will be available in October. 

Our “regular” season begins in late November and concludes in late February.  Postseason (state series) wrestling is the first two weeks in March.

After our initial registration period closes, we will evaluate the registrations we receive to form practice groups and establish a practice schedule.  We will email practice details (days/times) to you prior to the start of the season.  Practices will likely begin the week after Thanksgiving.
