Wrestling season will soon be coming to an end. With the success that Hernando county had last year there are high expectations.
For the last six years Springstead High School has finished in the top five at state for the Class 2A field. In 2014, they finished third. Three of the four wrestlers they brought reached the finals with two winning state titles (Mike McDonald and Jordan Rivera).
Last year Hernando High School surprised with an eighth place finish with both of their wrestlers who made state reaching the finals. They won one state title (Jesse Gaudin).
Central High School had a wrestler finish third (Brandon Brown). This was the first time a wrestler from Central had reached the podium since 2003.
Weeki Wachee High School had their first win ever at state (Dante Padilla).
This should be another exciting year for Hernando County Wrestlers at the state finals which take place March 13-14.
