The Spartan youth program continues to send wrestlers to state and this year they are sending 16 wrestlers to the WWF Kids Folkstyle state tournament. Here are a few words from Spartan youth coach Brian Brooks…
We wrestled Regionals at Westby, Richland Center and Bayport qualifying 16 Spartan Wrestlers [to the state tournament]. The most wrestlers qualifying previously was eight and that was last year. Spartan wrestlers now will head to the WWF Kids Folkstyle state tournament on Friday, March 25th and 26th at the Alliant Energy Center in Madison for a showdown with the state’s best.
The wrestlers that qualified for state are pictured below. The first photo are of wrestlers participating in the Spartan youth program that qualified while the second photo is of Spartan wrestlers qualifying while wrestling with the La Crosse Area Wrestlers program. Check back here next week to see how Sparta’s youth wrestlers did at state.
