State wrestling update...Claudine Stein falls 7-2 in the consolation quarter finals. Phenomenal first season and an amazing run. Claudine is a freshman state qualifier. Her tournament included 3 matches against current or formerly ranked opponents. She opened the tournament with a victory over the #6 ranked wrestler in the state. She finished as one of the final 192 high school girls wresting this season.
Remarkable growth and commitment throughout the season! TMP is so very proud of how far Claudine has come this season and is excited to see what the next three years hold for her and our wrestling team.
