The end of February was a big time for West High sports. Both wrestling and swimming went to state and came back with placers. Please congratulate these qualifiers for the state wrestling competition.
Nasir Johnson (106 lb. Soph) placed 5th at the state wrestling tournament in late February. This is a major accomplishment considering he's been out of the sport for the past 4 years. Congratulations to Samuel Rushin (160 lb. Fresh), who finished the tournament with a 1-2 record.
