Team Super Regionals

Last night was the "Super Regionals" or a "combined Regional/Semi State for the team. Round one was Plymouth vs. Mishawaka. Trenton wrestled Chase Lewandowski, a kid he may possibly have this coming weekend at Individual Regionals. He was excited to wrestle Chase for a couple of reasons...1. He is the kid who beat Tyler at the Plymouth Invite and his dad had a party next to us (remember this) for doing so and 2. Trenton wanted to get a feel for this kid's wrestling style before Saturday. Although Trenton had told us he had just vomited a couple times and not feeling well, he beat Lewandowski 8-4. The team handedly beat Plymouth (56-6) and advanced on to the final round against Elkhart Memorial. A tough team that had made it to state in previous years but had met up with us this year before hand with the new format and "Super Regionals." Trenton had Alberto Rios and won 14-3. Trenton was tough and even had an injury time out to vomit in the trash during his match. I felt so bad for him. The dual meet itself was intense because the first few matches didn't go our way. The score was much closer than what we had wanted it, but we won and advanced to State at the end of February with a score of 36-22. Looking so forward to that weekend...the atmosphere at Team State is extraordinary. I am thrilled that Trenton gets to be a part of it! Go Cavemen!
