COLLEGE PARK — On wrestling mats all over Frederick County today, it has become easier than ever to find a state champion or someone who could soon be one.
With an abbreviated season about to end and no postseason tournaments this year, most area wrestling coaches are focusing on building for the future.
THURMONT — Linganore wrestling coach Ben Arneson feels for his seniors, Scott Hummel and Frankie Dickenson.
MIDDLETOWN — Like many high school athletes across the county on Wednesday, Oakdale junior wrestler Tyson Thompson felt kind of strange when he took the mat against Middletown’s Ezra White in the opening bout of a dual match between the two schools.
County tournaments, state meets, postseason games.
Falling in line perfectly with the strangeness of the year, Linganore wrestling coach Ben Arneson spent the first day of winter sports practice Monday watching his team, Peeping Tom style, through a window at the school.
