The Cambridge High School Varsity Wrestling Team Making its Mark
On Wednesday January 9th the Cambridge High School Varsity Wrestling Team hosted their final home event of the season. The tri-meet pitted the Cambridge team against Johns Creek and Centennial. The final home event was dedicated to our team's seniors, Nick Salter and Tomas Videla who would both wrestle in their final home matches of their wrestling careers. As an exchange student, Tomas was not able to participate in varsity athletics and made significant contributions on our Junior Varsity team this season. Nick Salter marked the evening with two key falls earning 12 team points with his hallmark high paced exciting style of wrestling. Nick has had a tremendous high school wrestling career with over 70 wins. Nick will look to make a statement on his way to traditional states where Cambridge expect to have a number of boys qualify and place.
The team won both dual wrestling events beating Johns Creek 40 to 38 and trouncing Centennial by a score of 52-21. This brings the team's win total to 14 on the season surpassing the expectations of most for this very young but talented group of wrestlers. The team will be in action this weekend at the North Metro Invitational held at Brookwood High School on Friday and Saturday. The event is among the most competitive invitational tournaments held in Georgia with numerous top programs participating including Brookwood, Woodward Academy and Notre Dame.
