Wrestling Wins First Duels of  Season

Following mixed results after their first meet, the Vikings were eager for a win at their first duels on Thursday, December 7. The Vikes used this motivation and added two wins to their season record.

The Vikes faced both Hamilton Township and Grandview Heights. The Vikings rose to the challenge and won the meets 44-30 and 30-18, respectively. Captain Josh Pearson’18 won 1 of 2 matches against the top-ranked wrestler in the state. Juniors Cole Duffy and Thomas Jones each won 1 match against tough opponents. Academy’s underclassmen were major contributors to the effort, with Phillip Soderberg’20 and Vassar Barney’21 each winning 2 matches, and freshmen Chris Sugar and Ethan Halpern each winning 1 match.

The Vikings hope to continue their winning streak at East Knox High School on Saturday, December 16.
