Early Season High School West Wrestling

During winter, multiple sports are occurring including: Basketball, Track and also Wrestling. The Wrestling team at High School West started off the season with two wins against North Babylon and Uniondale. The first meet was against North Babylon and ended up with Hills West on top winning 40-35. It was a very close match because North Babylon is very impressive when it comes to this particular sport. Out of the 15 matches Hills West won 8 of them giving them the edge over North Babylon.
The second meet of the season was against Uniondale, which did not have as good a roaster as North Babylon, but was still a formidable opponent. Dylan Ryder, who is a wrestler for High School West, won his match against North Babylon which kept his winning record against Uniondale alive. He bested Yverson Saintvil in a key match to help secure the win for High School West. Matthew Mandel, Devin Lezzoni, and Anthony Dushaj also won their matches and all of them after this meet were 2-0 against their opponents. These are just a few of the victors from High School West but there were many others in the win over Uniondale.
The next game of the season entailed a matchup against Smithtown West. Going into this game both teams were undefeated and had two wins, so this game would looked to be close. Unfortunately Hills West did not leave with a win in yet again another close game with the score being 39-35. Other games coming up are at Deer Park at 6:00 pm on January 13th, and Hills West is home against West Babylon at 6:00 pm on January 18th.
