That means high goals for the wrestling team. We want to win the whole thing this year, said Coach Waldron, who begins his fifth year as head coach of the Wasps. To do that, we will have to beat Millard. To beat Millard, we will have to qualify twenty wrestlers for the state tournament. Its crucial that all fifteen wrestlers who made it to state last year make it again this year. Juab figures to be in the strongest region again this year; with Juab, North Summit, Grants-villand South Summit all ranked in the pre season top five this year. Our region is always the toughest.
