Wrestler Nick Gonzalez Wins State Championship

Nick Gonzales was our only Wrestling State Champion during the 2009-2010 season. Nick finished with a 47-1 record and won many tournaments on his way to the state title.

We asked him to summarize his feeling about the season:

It feels good to win state! It’s been my goal ever since I joined this sport. Now that I have a state title, it makes me feel like I’m one of the best wrestlers in Arizona.
